Question

Find the allowable height for the hypotenuse if the hypotenuse catheters are 4 cm and 9 cm

Answer 1

Answer:

L = 9.85 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess you meant length for the hypotenuse. We just apply the pythagorean theorem:

L = $\sqrt{(4 cm)^2 + (9 cm)^2} = \sqrt{16 cm^2 + 81 cm^2} = \sqrt{97 cm^2} = (circa) 9.85 cm$

Answer 2

Answer:

solutions given;

base:9 cm

perpendicular: 4 cm

hypotenuse:?

By using pythagorus law

hypotenuse^2: perpendicular^2+base^2

hypotenuse:$\sqrt {4^2+9^2}$

hypotenuse:9.84cm
