What is the length of the unknown leg in the right triangle?
22 mi
32 mi
104 mi
194 mi

Answer:
[tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex] mi
Step-by-step explanation:
For a right angled triangle, if the sides containing right angle is a and b then
hypotenuse to the triangle is given by hypotenuse = [tex]\sqrt{a^2+b^2}[/tex]
______________________
In the problem side containing right angle is 9 mi and a mi
while hypotenuse[tex]\sqrt{113}[/tex] mi.
Using formula for hypotenuse and using value 9 mi, a mi and [tex]\sqrt{113}[/tex] we have
[tex]hypotenuse = \sqrt{a^2+b^2} \\=>\sqrt{113} = \sqrt{a^2+9^2} \\=>\sqrt{113} = \sqrt{a^2+81} / squaring/ both / side\\=> 113 = a^2+81\\=> 113 - 81 = a^2\\=> a^2 = 32\\=>a = \sqrt{32}[/tex]
Thus length of unknown leg is [tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex] mi.
