The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 37 millimeters long. One of the right triangle is 12 millimeters long. What is the length of the other leg?

Respuesta :

The length can be found using Pythagorean theorem.
a2 = b2 + c2
Let the other leg be x
37^2 = x2 + 12^2
x2 = 37^2 - 12^2
= 1369 - 144
= 1225
x = 35 mm

Hope it helped!
i think it is 35.....
