Question

Please find missing side length!

Answer 1

The missing side length is 24.98 units

Explanation:

Given

The attached right-triangle

Required

The length of the missing length

Let the missing length be x.

Apply Pythagoras theorem

`Hyp^2 = Opp^2 + Adj^2`

This gives

`43^2 = 35^2 + x^2`

`1849 = 1225 + x^2`

Collect like terms

`x^2 = 1849 - 1225`

`x^2 = 624`

Take square roots of both sides

`x = \sqrt{624`

`x = 24.98` --- approximated
