You can put this solution on YOUR website! the length of the legs of right triangle RST are 11 inch and 60 inch. what is the length, in inches of the hypotenuse of triangle RST.
--------------------
Use Pythagoras:
(hypo)^2 = leg^2 + leg^2
-------
h^2 = 11^2 + 60^2
---
h^2 = 121 + 3600
---
h = sqrt(3721)
---
h = 61
