The legs of the right triangle are 2 and 4. Find the length of the hypotenuse.

Correct

19.7ft

Explanation:

This problem is solved using the Pythagorean theorem  (a2+b2=c2).  In this formula a and b are the legs of the right triangle while c is the hypotenuse.

Using the labels of our triangle we have:

o2+a2=h2

\dpi{100} h^{2}=(10ft)^{2} +(17ft)^{2}

h2=100ft2+289ft2

h=389ft2−−−−−√

Correct Answer →19.7ft

Hope this helps!
