Given :-
- In a right angled triangle, if sum of the squares of the sides making right angle is 169.
To Find :-
- Length of the Hypotenuse = ?
Answer :-
- Length of the Hypotenuse =
Explaination :-
Pythagorean theorem, states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of the lengths of other two sides of the right-angled triangle, i.e :
- (Perpendicular)² + (Base)² = (Hypotenuse)²
It is given in the question that the sum of the square of the sides making right angle traingle is 169.
So,
→ 169 = (Hypotenuse)²
→ √169 = Hypotenuse
→ Hypotenuse = √169
→ Hypotenuse = 13 units.
Therefore,Length of the Hypotenuse is 13 units.
