Answer:
15 units
Step-by-step explanation:
By using the Pythagoras Theorem,
C^2 = A^2 + B^2
Substitute in the given values,
25^2 = a^2 + 20^2
625 = a^2 + 400
625 - 400 = a^2 + 400 - 400
a^2 = 225
= 15
Hope this too helped! ^^
I'd recommend watching a video or two on the topic of Pythagoras Theorem, if this explanation isn't clear enough.
First add the 8 to both sides, canceling out the 8 in the right and adding it to the 19 on the left, making it 27. Multiplying undoes division so, After that, multiply by three on both sides, canceling out the three on the right and multiply 27 by 3, making it 81.
