What Is The Length Of BC In The Right Triangle Below B 00 A 15 С A 17 B 60 C 17 D 289 class=

Sagot :

  • Perpendicular=P=8
  • Base=B=15
  • Hypotenuse=H

Using Pythagorean Theorem

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto H^2=P^2+B^2[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto H^2=8^2+15^2[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto H^2=64+225[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto H^2=289[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto H=\sqrt{289}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto H=17[/tex]

  • BC=17
