using Pythagoras Theorem find the hypotenuse of right angle triangle whose side is 40 cm and 9cm how to solve this question

Answer»

Heya!!

Here is your answer.

We KNOW that the hypotenuse is the LARGEST side in a right-angled triangle.

And, the formula of Pythagoras theorem is
a²+b² = c²

Where, a = base/PERPENDICULAR, b=base/perpendicular and c=hypotenuse

a and b are the two sides of the triangle i.e the legs.(the base and perpendicular of a triangle are together CALLED the legs)

Now, let's solve the problem USING Pythagoras theorem.

a²+b² = c²

=>c² = 40²+9²

=>c² = 1600+81

=> c² = 1681

=> c = √1681

=> c = 41
