Question

can you explain this in detail?

Answer 1

Answer:

First you take

Hypotenuse 17 cm

And Height=8 cm

pythagoras theorem,

a²+b²=c²

where a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse.

where a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse.Here, a = 8, c = 17

where a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse.Here, a = 8, c = 17So,

b²=17²−8²

b²=289-64

so,b=√(225)

=15 cm
