HELPPP PLSSS ITS DUE TOMORROW

Show your work. a2 + b2 = c2
c is the side length of the hypotenuse. c2 is the hypotenuse side length multiplied by itself. You need to find the square root of the c2 value in order to solve for c.

Answer 1

We'll be using the Pythagoras property to solve this question.

According to the Pythagoras property,

• H² = B² + P²

H denotes hypotenuse

B denotes base

P denotes perpendicular

Here,

• H = x
• P = 35 cm
• B = 12 cm

→ (x)² = (35 cm)² + (12 cm)²

→ x² = 1225 cm² + 144 cm²

→ x² = 1369 cm²

→ x = √(1369 cm²)

→ x = 37 cm

Therefore, value of x is 37 cm.
