Aright triangle has a base that measures 39 inches and a height that measures 80 inches what is the length of the hypotense

A right triangle has three sides: the two sides that share a vertex are known as the legs, and the other side is known as the hypotenuse.  The legs are known as a and b, while the hypotenuse is c.
The Pythagorean Theorem states the a^2 + b^2 = c^2.  If we plug the numbers into this equation, we will find the length of the hypotenuse.
39^2 + 80^2 = c^2
1521 + 6400 = c^2
7921 = c^2
We have c squared now, but we want to know how much c is equal to.  The square root of c^2 will be our answer.
89 = c
The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs that measure 39 and 80 inches is 89 inches.
