Answer: 5.9 cm for both triangles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, since the situation forms 2 right triangles we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
Where c is the hypotenuse of a triangle (the longest side of the triangle) and a and b are the other sides.
Replacing with the values given:
c^2 = 3^2 + 5^2
c^2 = 9+25
c^2 = 34
c = √34
c = 5.9 cm
Since both triangles are identical ( same side lengths) the hypotenuse is the same for both, 5.9 cm.
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
