Answer:
- Answer :
Let the triangle be ABC
Base AB = 15 cm
Altitude BC = 8 cm
Hypotenuse CA = x cm
For finding the third side ( hypotenuse ) we'll apply Pythagoras Theorem!
( CA )² = ( AB )² + ( BC )²
( x )² = ( 15 )² + ( 8 )²
x² = 225 + 64
x² = 289
x² = √289
x = 17 cm
Therefore,
- CA ( hypotenuse ) is 17 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
- Hope it helps uh!
