Find the length of the missing side. if necessary, round to the nearest tenth

c = 14.9

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagorean formula (see attached illustration)

c² = 5² + 14²

c² = 221

c = √221

c = 14.866

c = 14.9 (nearest tenth)

To answer this question you must use Pythagorean theorem

a and b are the legs (the sides that form a perpendicular/right angle)

c is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)

In this case...

a = 5

b = 14

c = unknown

^^^Plug these numbers into the theorem

solve for c

25 + 196 = c²

221 = c²

c = √221

c ≈ 14.7

Hope this helped!
