Answer 1

Answer:

The length of other leg is 4.58

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

One leg of triangle = 10

Hypotenuse = 11

Using Pythagorean theorem,

$a^2+b^2=c^2\\(10)^2 + b^2 = (11)^2\\100+b^2 = 121 \\b^2 = 121-100 \\b^2 = 21$

Taking square root on both sides

$\sqrt{b^2}=\sqrt{21}\\b=4.58$

Therefore,

The length of other leg is 4.58
