Question

Which of the following is the missing side length that completes the

Pythagorean triple below?
5, 12,

Answer 1

13

Explanation:

We can find the missing side length by using the pythagorean theorem

a² + b² = c²

5² + 12² = c²

25 + 144 = c²

169 = c²

13 = c

So, 13 is the missing side length.
