Answer:
In ΔABC,
AB= 15cm (straight side)
BC= 8cm (straight side)
AC= ? (Length of Hypotenuse)
By Pythagorous Theorem,
∵ AC²= AB²+ BC²
∴ AC²= 15² + 8²
∴ AC²= 225 + 64
∴ AC²= 289
∴ AC= √289
∴ AC= 17cm
∵ Length of Hypotenuse = 17cm.

Answer:
If this is a right angle triangle we can solve it by pythagorean therom and the solution will be
P2+B2 = H2
15^2+8^2 = H2
225+64 =H2
289 = H2
square root of 289 will be 17
