Question

"hypotenuse" of the triangle: if the height is 24 feet and base is 36 feet.

Answer 1

Answer:

43.27

Step-by-step explanation:

(24×24)+(36×36)= 1872

√1872=43.27

Answer 2

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

Hypotenuse = sqrt( 24^2 + 36^2)

Hypotenuse = sqrt(576 + 1296)

Hypotenuse = sqrt(1872)

Hypotenuse = 2sqtt(469) or 43.266
