Question

The hypotenuse of a right angle triangle is 13cm,if one other side of the triangle is 1cm shorter than the hypotenuse.calculate the 3rd side of the triangle

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

H = 13cm

let B be = 13-1

             = 12cm

(H² = (B)² +(P)²

13² =12² + P²

169 = 144 + P²

169 - 144 = P²

25= P²

√25 =P

5cm= P
