Question

What is the length of the hypotenuse? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Answer:

• c = 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find 'c' using Pythagoras theorem.

• => c² = 2.4² + 4.9²
• => c² = 5.76 + 24.01
• => c² = 29.77
• => c = √29.77
• => c = 5.456 = 5.5 (Estimated)

Answer 2

Answer:

c ≈ 5.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

c² = 2.4² + 4.9² = 5.76 + 24.01 = 29.77 ( take square root of both sides )

c = $\sqrt{29.77}$ ≈ 5.5 cm ( to the nearest tenth )
