Question

Find the missing side

Answer 1

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

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

15^2 + b^2 = 25^2

225 + b^2 = 625

b^2 = 625 -225

b^2 =400

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(400)

b = 20
