What is the length of a hypotenuse when the legs are 5 and 12

Alisiya [41]

By using pythagoras theorem where
(Base)^2 +(perpedicular)^2 = (hypotenuse)^2
So,
(5)^2 +(12)^2 = (hypotenuse)^2
25 + 144 = (hypotenuse)^2
169 = (hypotenuse)^2
13 = hypotenuse

So, hypotenuse = 13

Given :

Susan wanted to share her 37 seashells with her two younger brothers.

To Find :

If she divided her seashells between the three of them, how many would each person get.

Solution :

Let, each person will get x seashells.

So,

$x = \dfrac{\text{Total number of seashells}}{\text{Number of persons}}\\\\x = \dfrac{37}{3}\\\\x = 12.333$

But as we know seashells cannot be in decimal.

Therefore, each person will get exactly 12 shells.
