Question

the length of one of the leg on the right angled triangle is 240mm and the length hypotenuse 25 cm find the other leg of triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

240mm= 24 cm

by pythagoras theorem if length of 3rd leg is x cm

x² + 24² = 25²

x² = 625 - 476

x = root of 49

x = 7 cm

hope it helps pls mark as brainliest

Answer 2

Answer:

hypotenuse = 25 cm

one perpendicular side = 24 cm

third side^2 = 25^2 - 24^2

= 625 - 576 = 49

third side = √49 = 7cm
