Help Picture Below Problem 16 class=

Sagot :

The Pythagorean theorem is the idea that the sum of the two legs which are both squared is equal to the hypotenuse's length squared.

     *look at the image I attached for a better explanation

By looking at the picture, we are missing the leg's length, and by using the Pythagorean theorem, we get the equation

    [tex]?^2+9^2 = 16^2\\?^2 + 81 = 256\\?^2 = 175\\? = 13.2[/tex]

Thus the missing side length is 13.2 cm

Hope that helps!
