Question

Find the length of the hypotenuse, c in this triangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{Hypotenuse = 50}$

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying Pythagoras theorem we can find hypotenuse of a right angle triangle.

Side of right angle triangle (a) = 48 cm

Side of right angle triangle (b) = 14 cm

Hypotenuse² = a² × b²

${Hypotenuse}^{2} = {48}^{2} \times {14}^{2} \\ \\ {Hypotenuse}^{2} = 2304 + 196 \\ \\ {Hypotenuse}^{2} = 2500 \\ \\ {Hypotenuse}^{ \cancel{2}} = {50}^{ \cancel{2}} \\ \\ Hypotenuse = 50$

Answer 2

The hypotenuse equals 50
