Question

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

Answer 1

use the pythagoras theorem

a²+b²=c²

a²+7²=25²

a²+49=625

a²=576

√a²=√576

a=24

Answer 2

recheck your question

hypotenuse is the largest side but you ask a question in which other side is 7 m and hypotenuse (largest side) is 25cm

if hypotenuse is 25m and one side is 7 m

square of 25=625 cm

square of 7= 49m

then your answer is 625-49= 576

under root(576)= 24 m.

so 24m. is your answer
