Question

Someone help me answer this

Answer 1

a = 65 yd is the answer.

Explanation:

a = ?

b = 72 yd

c = 97 yd

According to the Pythagoras theorem,

a² + b² = c²

a² + 72² = 97²

a² + 5184 = 9409

a² = 9409 - 5184

a² = 4225

a = 65 yd

∴ a = 65 yd is the length of the missing leg.

Answer 2

65 yards because of a2+b2=c2
