Answer:
the length of the hypotenuse = 32.45 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
A right triangle has legs that are 18 centimeters and 27 centimeters long
In a right angle triangle , to find hypotenuse we use Pythagorean theorem
[tex]c^2= a^2+b^2[/tex]
where a and b are the length of two legs
Given a= 18 and b = 27
Lets find out C , plug in all the value in the formula
[tex]c^2= 18^2+27^2[/tex]
[tex]c^2=324 +729= 1053[/tex]
c^2 = 1053
now take square root on both sides
c= 32.45
So the length of the hypotenuse = 32.45 centimeters
