Triangle MNO is a right triangle with one leg = 15ft and the other leg = 18ft. Calculate the length of the hypotenuse to the nearest hundredth of a foot (2 decimal places)

Length of the hypotenuse = 23.43ft

Step-by-step explanation:

First leg = 15ft

Second leg = 18ft

Length of the hypotenuse = ?

In a right angle triangle,

Hypotenuse^2 = opposite^2 + Adjacent^2

Let first leg and second leg of the triangle be opposite and adjacent respectively

Hypotenuse^2 = opposite^2 + Adjacent^2

= 15^2 + 18^2

= 225 + 324

= 549

Hypotenuse^2 = 549

Find the square root of both sides

√Hypotenuse^2 = 549

Hypotenuse = 23.43ft to the nearest of a hundredth

Length of the hypotenuse = 23.43ft

anser is a

step-by-step explanation:

negitive slope

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents
