Question

In a right angled triangle, the sides forming the right angle are 24 cm and 7 cm . Hence the length of the hypotenuse will be

Answer 1

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

AB² (adj) + BC² (opp) = AC² ( hyp

let AC² be x⅔

24²+7²= x²

24²=576 ; 7²=49

576+49=625

x²=625. (move the square to right hand side, it becomes root)

x=√625

x=25.

Therefore the hypotenuse or the other side is 25
