Question

Find the missing side in the right triangle, Round to the nearest tenth, 

Answer 1

Hello!

$\large\boxed{c = 12.65}$

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the hypotenuse:

a² + b² = c²

Plug in the given values:

12² + 4² = c²

144 + 16 = c²

160 = c²

Take the square root of both sides:

c = √160

c ≈ 12.65.
