Ihave a triangle with one right side. one side equals 65 and the other 97. what does the third side equal? a. square root of 32 b.72 c. square root of 13634 d. 162

using the pythagorean theorem

a^2 +b^2 =c^2

65^2 +97^2 = c^2

4225 +9409 = c^2

13634 = c^2

c=sqrt(13634)

Choice C

step-by-step explanation:

this can be solved first with pythagorean theorem, which tells us to square both legs of the triangle and sum it. this will be equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

the hypotenuse is the side "opposite" the 90 degree angle, which is x.

so we can write using pythagorean theorem,

simplifying:

to further simplify this radical, we need to use the property  

thus

x=25?

i think this is the answer hope this
