Answer:

17 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem: $a^2+b^2=c^2$ where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

Plug in the values of the legs

$8^2+15^2=c^2\\64+225=c^2\\289=c^2\\c=\sqrt{289} \\c=17$

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 17 cm.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

h^2=x^2+y^2, in this case

h^2=8^2+15^2

h^2=64+225

h^2=289

h=17cm

As the world I’m heading towards and matching up to is getting bigger

It makes me feel an emptiness somehow

What part it is, even if the shape is maybe like this

Even when myself can’t come to know it

As if solving up the scattered pieces

We are matching up our stories

Inside the empty spot in my heart, there’s a piece called you taking place

I just know it at first glance I saw you

You’re my missing puzzle piece

Finally I solved it

You filled every piece of my heart, even the scarred part of it to the fullest

And somehow, you’ve become my everything

My missing puzzle piece

The fact that I have a flaw,

The truth that I am imperfect All of it makes me feel small

But in between those gaps

We can fill one another with it

So I don’t even realized that it was empty

“Hello, it’s been so long, isn’t it?”

The small piece that I put in my pocket and carry around everywhere

Please be with me so it can be fuller and prettier

After I met you, I’m able to draw a bigger picture

You’re my missing puzzle piece

Finally I solved it

You filled every piece of my heart, even the scarred part of it to the fullest

And somehow, you’ve become my everything

My missing puzzle piece

More than having everything, Not losing that one thing is more important

Through you, I came to know that

You’re my missing puzzle piece

Very dazzling

It becomes one scene inside the world that I’ve been trying to put together alone

Like the hands that are interlocking tight together,

Because without you, it can’t be completed

So that we won’t lose each other,

My missing puzzle piece

Answer:

See the attachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

The approach is to take advantage of the definition of a perpendicular bisector to show the base lengths and right angles are congruent, then use SAS with the second side being CD (congruent to itself). It's mainly a matter of deciding what the various reasons are called.

It seems the goal is to show that AC = BC as marked.
