Question

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth

Answer 1

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

third side is the hypotenuse since it is opposite to 90 degree.

using pythagoras theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

24^2 + 18^2 = c^2

576 + 324 = c^2

900 = c^2

$\sqrt{900}$ = c

30 = c

therefore third side is 30.

Answer 2

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

${24}^{2} + 18 {}^{2} = c {}^{2} \\ 576 + 324 = c {}^{2} \\ \sqrt{900 = \sqrt{c }^{2} } \\ = 30$
