The measures of the legs of a right triangle are 15 m and 20 m. use the triangle measures and substitute the lengths for a and b in the formula. a2+b2=c2

a2 + b 2 = c 2 2 + 2 = c2

25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to determine the length of the hypotenuse

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

15^2 + 20 ^2 = c^2

225 + 400 = c^2

625 = c^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(625) = sqrt(c^2)

25 = c
