Question
- find the length of the missing side. if necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
Step1: Aplicar el Teorema de Pitágoras
El Teorema de Pitágoras establece que \(a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}\), donde \(c\) es la hipotenusa (38) y \(a = 34\). Entonces, \(b^{2}=c^{2}-a^{2}\).
Sustituyendo los valores: \(b^{2}=38^{2}-34^{2}\).
Calculando \(38^{2}=1444\) y \(34^{2}=1156\), entonces \(b^{2}=1444 - 1156=288\).
Step2: Calcular la raíz cuadrada de \(b^{2}\)
\(b=\sqrt{288}\).
Simplificando, \(\sqrt{288}=\sqrt{144\times2}=12\sqrt{2}\approx12\times1.414 = 16.968\approx17.0\)
