Question

The hypotenuse of a right angle triangle is 25 cm if one of the sides is 7m find the other side

Answer 1

24 m is the other side

Answer 2

Pythagoras theorem  (Hypotenuse)^2=(opposite)^2 + (adjacent)^2 25^2= 7^2 + x^2 25^2-7^2=x^2 x^2=624-49 x^2=576 x=24 Therefore, the other side/adjacent= 24cm
