Question

In the triangle xyz , angle xzy is 90° xy is 13cm and yz is 5cm ,what is the length of xz .

Answer 1

Answer:

the length of xz will be 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure, angle xzy= 90°

xy= 13cm and yz= 5cm

So, by Pythagoras theorem, we get,

(13)²= (5)²+(xz)²

169= 25+xz²

169-25= xz²

144= xz²

xz= 12cm
