Question

using Pythagoras theorem, caclutale AC AB=11cm BC=4CM AC=unknown using Pythagoras theorem, caclutale the length of AC

Answer 1

11.70 cm

Solution,

AB (p) = 11 cm

BC (b) = 4 cm

AC (h) = ?

now,

Using the Pythagoras theorem:

`{h}^(2) = {p}^(2) + {b}^(2)`

`{h}^(2) = {(11)}^(2) + {(4)}^(2)`

`{h }^(2) = 121 + 16`

`{h }^(2) = 137`

`h = √(137)`

`h = 11.70 \: cm`

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment..
