Answer:

20cm

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagorean theorem,

Adjacent side ² + Opposite side ² = Hypotenuse side ²

12²+16²= Hypotenuse side ²

144+ 256= Hypotenuse side ²

400 = Hypotenuse side ²

Hypotenuse side = ✓400

= ±20 = 20( Sides cannot be negative, hence ignoring -20)

Hypotenuse side= 20 cm
