Question

if the two legs of a right triangle are 5 cm and 12 cm long, find the length of hypotenuse.if the answer is 13, what are the steps.​

Answer 1

Answer:

hypo^2=leg1^2+leg2^2

13^2=5^2+12^2

169=25+144

169=169

LHS=RHS

THEREFORE THIS IS A RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLE

Answer 2

Answer:

13 cm = hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Base of the triangle = 5cm

perpendicular of the triangle = 12cm

Hypotenuse of the triangle - xcm

$h^{2}= b^{2} + p^{2} \\x^{2} = 5^{2} + 12^{2} \\x^{2} = 25 + 144 \\x^{2} = 169\\13^{2} = 169$

thus the hypotenuse is 13 cm
