In a right triangle with side lengths of 5.2 feet and 23 feet, what is the length of the hypotenuse?

Answer 1

the formula for hypotenuse is: c = square root of (a² + b²⁾

a and b are the side length of the right triangle.

so here let's set: a = 5.2 ft, b = 23 ft

and c becomes:

c = square root of (5.2)²+(23)² = 23.58
