Given:
a=15cm
b=8cm

Solution:
By Pythagoras theorem
a^2+b^2=c^2
15^2+8^2=c^2
c^2=289
c=17cm

The Pythagoras is the sum of the square of two sides is equal to the square of the longest side. Then the value of c is 17 cm.

What is a right-angle triangle?

It is a type of triangle in which one angle is 90 degrees and it follows the Pythagoras theorem and we can use the trigonometry function.

Given that a = 15 cm and b = 8 cm, then show the value of the c will be

It is clear that c is a hypotenuse. Then the hypotenuse is given by the Pythagoras theorem.

c² = a² + b²

c² = 15² + 8²

c² = 225 + 64

c² = 289

c = √289

c = 17 cm
