Question

A right triangle has side 32 and hypotenuse 68. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the third side.

Answer 1

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

A^2+B^2= C^2

Move A over so we can solve for side B

B^2= C^2 - A^2

B^2= (68^2) - (32^2)

B^2 = 3600

We have to find B so take the square root of both sides.

B = 60
