Question

The two legs of a right-angled A measure 12cm and 35cm. What is the length of its hypotenuse?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let hypotenuse is. x

12^2+35^2=x^2

144+1225= x^ 2

1369= x^ 2

√1369= x

37cm= x

Answer 2

Let hypotenuse measure x cm

By Pythagoras theorem

x^2 = (12)^2 + (35)^2
x^2 = 144 + 1225
x^2 = 1369
x = root 1369
x = 37cm

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 37cm
