Question

Find the missing side of the triangle. Round to the nearest tenth where necessary find qr

Answer 1

Answer:

QR = 4.9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is a right triangle, use the Pythagorean Theorem (a² + b² = c²).

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\\\a^2+1^2=5^2\\\\a^2+1=25\\\\a^2=24\\\\\sqrt{a^2}=\sqrt{24}\\\\a=4.9$
