Answer:

5√7

Step-by-step explanation:

c is the hypotenuse NOT the leg (I just took a quiz and had the exact same question). Therefore:

16^2 - 9^2  = a^2

256 - 81 = a^2

175 = a^2

a^2 = 5√7

If c is the hypotenuse and b is the leg, then the third side (a):
a= \sqrt{c^2-b^2}= \sqrt{16^2-9^2}= \sqrt{256-81}= \sqrt{175}=5 \sqrt{7}

If b and с are legs, then hypotenuse (a):
a= \sqrt{b^2+c^2}= \sqrt{9^2+16^2}= \sqrt{81+256}= \sqrt{337}

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!!! I WILL MAKE YOU BRAINLIST Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
Bess [88]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

20^2 +b^2 = 25^2

400 + b^2 = 625

-400           -400

b^2 = 225

b = √225

b = 15

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

C and D are the same answers but one of those.

Step-by-step explanation:

Um, I got what Robert got, so by process of elimination, it must be C or D. I used multiplication, so it wasn't subtraction or addition. Meaning whatever a reciprocal is, I didn't do that.
