The measures of the legs of a right triangle are 15m and 20m . What is the length of the hypotenuse

Respuesta :

Answer:

25 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

Or just know you are finding the hypotenuse and use c=sqrt(a^2+b^2)

If you were finding a leg use a=sqrt(c^2-b^2).

So sqrt(15^2+20^2)

=sqrt(225+400)

=sqrt(625)

=25
