Hypotenuse^2 = base^2 + height^2, substitute the given values
Hypotenuse^2 = 5^2 + 12^2
Hypotenuse^2 = 25 + 144
Hypotenuse^2 = 169
Hypotenuse = √169
Hypotenuse = 13
Thus, the hypotenuse is 13 inches.
according to the pythagoras theorem, In a right angled triangle,
(hypotenuse)2 = (side)2 + (side)2
so by pythagoras theorem we get,
9.0
opposite^2+adjacent^2=hypotenuse^2
____________
X=/hypotenuse^2
One decimal place would be, for example.
22.7 cm
It is used to find the hypotenuse of a Right triangle
(hypotenuse)2= (side1)2 + (side2)2
