C. 7.5
D. 6.5

2.5

Answer 1

Answer:

c = 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

6^2 + 2.5^2 = c^2

36 + 6.25 = c^2

42.25 = c^2

6.5 = c

Answer 2

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

y² = 6² + 2.5² = 36 + 6.25 = 42.25 ( take the square root of both sides )

y = $\sqrt{42.25}$ = 6.5 → D
