Question 927321: if a right triangle has a hypotenuse of 12 cm and one leg that measures 9 cm, what is the length of the other leg?
Answer by TimothyLamb(4379)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! h = sqrt( aa + bb )
12 = sqrt( 9*9 + bb )
12^2 = sqrt( 9*9 + bb )^2
144 = 81 + bb
bb = 144 - 81
b = sqrt( 144 - 81 )
b = 7.9372539332 cm
