Respuesta :

  • Perpendicular=P=4
  • Base=B=4

Hypotenuse be H

Apply Pythagorean theorem

[tex]\\ \tt\hookrightarrow H^2=P^2+B^2[/tex]

[tex]\\ \tt\hookrightarrow H^2=4^2+4^2[/tex]

[tex]\\ \tt\hookrightarrow H^2=32[/tex]

[tex]\\ \tt\hookrightarrow H=\sqrt{32}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \tt\hookrightarrow H=5.8units[/tex]
