consider s1=8,s2=15
from pythogreas rule
Ac^2 =AB^2 +BC^2
AC^2 =8^2+15^2
AC^2=64+225
Ac^2=289
Ac=root289
AC=17cm
third side is 17cm

Answer:
Assuming that these are the sides of a right angle triangle
Given that,
side 1 = 8cm
side 2 = 15cm
According to pythagoras theorem
(base)^2 + (Altitude)^2 = (Hypotenuse)^2
taking side 1 as base & side 2 as altitude
taking side 1 as base & side 2 as altitude Substituting the values in the equation
=>> (8)^2 + (15)^2 = 64 + 225 = 289
=>> 289 = (17)^2
ie. Hypotenuse = 17cm
