You can put this solution on YOUR website! Question 1. For a right triangle that has legs a and b and hypotenuse c, find the length of the side not given here.
a = 5 cm
b = 12 cm
---
c = sqrt[5^2 + 12^2] = sqrt(169) = 13
--------------------------------------------
Question 2.
For a right triangle that has legs a and b and hypotenuse c, find the length of the side not given here.
a = 18 inches
c = 30 inches
-----
b^ sqrt[30^2-18^2] = sqrt[900-324] = sqrt[576] = 24
===========================================================
