Answer:
AC = 3√5 cm ≈ 6.708cm
Step-by-step explanation:
i suppose the measure of ∠B = 90° (the question is not clear )
also, given that AB = 6cm and BC=3cm (is this m or cm again not clear )
=> the triangle is a right angled triangle with right angle at B
=> AC is the hypotenuse , also AB and BC are the other 2 sides
by pythogorous theorem,
here, AC² = AB² + BC²
=> AC² = 6² + 3²
= 36+9
= 45
so, AC = √45 = √(9*5) = √9 * √5
= 3√5 cm (or 3*2.236 cm = 6.708cm)
