Question

What is the length of in the right triangle below?



A.
150

B.
25

C.


D.
625

Answer 1

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

We know the two legs and want to find the hypotenuse

15^2+ 20 ^2 = c^2

225 + 400 = c^2

625 = c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(625) = c^2

25 = c
