Solution:
c 2=a2+ b2
c 2=3 2 cm+52 cm
2
c =9 cm+25 cm
c =34 cm
2
√ c 2=√ 34cm
c=¿ 5.83095 cm or 5.83 cm
7m
260=c 2
√ 260= √c 2
2 √ 65=c
4. Prove that triangle is a right triangle if the length of the sides are 8mm,
15mm and 17mm.
GIVEN:
8mm = Leg A
15mm = Leg B
17mm = Hypotenuse
SOLUTION:
2 2 2
a + b =c
82 +152 =c 2
64+ 225=289
Since the sum of the legs equals the hypotenuse, it is a right triangle.
5. The hypotenuse of a triangle is 17in and one side is 11in. Find the other
side.
SOLUTION:
2 2 2
a + b =c
112 +b2=17 2
121+b2 =289
2
b =289−121
2
b =168
√ b2= √168
b=2 √ 42
