Question

what is the length of the hypotenuse? if necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
c = feet

Explanation:

Step1: Aplicar el Teorema de Pitágoras

$$a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$$
Donde \(a = 5\) y \(b = 12\). Sustituir los valores:
$$5^{2}+12^{2}=c^{2}$$

Step2: Calcular los cuadrados

$$25 + 144=c^{2}$$

Step3: Sumar

$$169=c^{2}$$

Step4: Extraer la raíz cuadrada

$$c=\sqrt{169}$$
$$c = 13$$

Answer:

13
