Question

Find the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides of 13 and 37

Answer 1

Hypotenuse = 39.2173431023

Explanation:

By the Pythagoras theorem,

a²+b²=c²

13²+37²=c²

c²=169+1369

c²=1538

c=√(1538)

c=39.2173431023

Answer 2

c = 39.22

Explanation:

Given: the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides of 13 and 37.

First write the formula:

`c=√(a^2+b^2)`

Then put in the numbers:

`c = √(13^2+37^2)`

Then calculate:

= 39.22
