Question

3) In a right angled triangle the sides making the right angle are 11cm and 60cm. Find the hypotenuse.​

Answer 1

Answer: 61 cm

Step-by-step explanation:                                                                           Triangle ABC, AC is the hypotenuse and AB and BC are the other two sides.

(AC)^2=(AB)^2+(BC)^2   (Pythagoras Theorem)

(AC)^2=(11)^2+(60)^2

(AC)^2= 121+3600

(AC)^2=3721

AC= square root of 3721

AC= 61
