For this question, you should use the Pythagorean Theorem, because there's a right triangle.
a² + b² = c²
We're looking for the length of the braces, which is the hypotenuse. It's represented by the "c" value, so we have to solve for "c".
We're told that what the "a" & "b" value is.
a² + b² = c²
62² + 120² = c²
3,844 + 14,400 = c²
18,244 = c²
√c² = c = √18,244 = 2√4561 ≈ 135.07
a² + b² = c²
