Question

Pls help me answer this (multiple choice)

Answer 1

Answer:

Option 3, 18.0

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the Hypotenuse of a right triangle, use the Pythagoras theorem:

$a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}$

(see image below)

(the longest side of any right △ is always C)

In this equation, we know A is 10 and B is 15, so plug in these numbers and solve for C

$10^{2} +15^{2} =c^{2}$

$100 + 225 =c^{2}$

$325 = c^{2}$

Now that the equation is simplified, we find the square root of 325 to solve for C.

$\sqrt{325 = c^{2}}$

$18.0 = c$

The final answer is C = 18.0

Hope this helps you understand :)
