Question

The areas of the squares adjacent to two sides of a right triangle are 29.2529.2529, point, 25 units^2 2 squared and 131313 units^2 2 squared. Find the length, xxx, of the third side of the triangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

It is 6.5 units

Answer 2

Answer:

6.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Two adjacent sides of right triangle

Suppose a,b and c are sides of right triangle.

$a^2=29.25$squared units

$b^2=13$square units.

Length of third side,c=x units

We have to find the length of third side of the triangle.

$x^2=a^2+b^2$

By using Pythagoras theorem

$(Hypotenuse)^2=(Perpendicular\;side)^2+(Base)^2$

$x^2=29.25+13$

$x=\sqrt{29.25+13}$

$x=6.5units$

Hence, the length x of the third side of the triangle=6.5 units
