Question 497661: in the right triangle the length of the hypotenus is 60cm and the length of one leg is 48cm find the lengthh of the other leg (round to the nearest thousand) Answer by cleomenius(959) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 48^2 + x^2 = 60^2
2304 + x^2 = 3600
3600 - 2304 = 1296
