Using the Pythagorean theorem:

Hypotenuse = sqrt( 20^2 + 15^2)

Hypotenuse = sqrt( 400 + 225)

Hypotenuse = sqrt(625)

Hypotenuse = 25

Answer: 25 inches

Answer:

25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

20^2 + 15^2 = c^2

400 +225 = c^2

625=c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(625) = sqrt(c^2)

25 = c
