Question

the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 13 cm if one of the side of the triangle is 5 cm long find the length to the other side​

Answer 1

Answer:

Using Pythagoras theorem

H²=B²+P²

13²=5²+P²

P²=13²-5²

P²=169-25

P²=144

P=12

So the length of the other side is 12cm

Answer 2

Using Pythagoras Theorem

Square of hypotenuse = Sum of squares of other two sides

a² + b² = c²

5² + b² = 13²

25 + b² = 169

b² = 169 – 25

b² = 144

b = √144

b= 12

>> The length of the other side is 12cm.
