Answer:
The length of the missing side is 15 units
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
Any right triangle must satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem
so
[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]
where
c is the hypotenuse (greater side
a and b are the legs (perpendicular sides
we have
[tex]c=113\ units\\a=112\ units[/tex]
substitute
[tex]113^2=112^2+b^2[/tex]
solve for b
[tex]b^2=113^2-112^2[/tex]
[tex]b^2=225\\b=15\ units[/tex]
therefore
The length of the missing side is 15 units
