Question

Answer the math question below

Answer 1

Answer:

Given –

• Base = 8 cm.
• Perpendicular = 42 cm.

To Find –

• Hypotenuse ?

Solution –

We will apply Pythagoras theorem :

➸ Hypotenuse² = Base² + Perpendicular²

➸ Hypotenuse² = (8)² + (42)²

➸ Hypotenuse ² = 64 + 1764

➸ Hypotenuse² = 1828

➸ Hypotenuse = √1828

Refer the attachment.

➸ Hypotenuse = 42.7 cm

Some information -

A right angled triangle has three sides called as base, hypotenuse and altitude/perpendicular.

Hypotenuse us the side opposite to 90°.

Perpendicular is opposite of the angle ∅.

Answer 2

ANSWER:

Given:

Adjacent side(AB) = 42

Opposite side(BC) = 8

(Hypotenuse)² = AB² + BC²

(Hypotenuse)² = 42² + 8²

Hypotenuse = √1764+64

Hypotenuse = √1828

Hypotenuse = 42.7
