Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the triangle is right, use Pythagoras' identity to find N
The square on the hypotenuse is equat to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.
Here the hypotenuse = 73, thus
N² + 48² = 73², that is
N² + 2304 = 5329 ( subtract 2304 from both sides )
N² = 3025 ( take the square root of both sides )
N = = 55 → A
