To help you find the length of the missing leg ( b ), we can apply the Pythagorean theorem if there’s a right triangle involved, which states that ( a^2 + b^2 = c^2 ) (where ( c ) is the hypotenuse and ( a ) and ( b ) are the other two sides).
1. If you have the lengths of one leg ( a ) and the hypotenuse ( c ), you can rearrange the formula to solve for ( b ):
[
b = sqrt{c^2 – a^2}
]
2. Plug in the values of ( a ) and ( c ) that you have.
3. Calculate the result and round to the nearest tenth if required.
If you provide the lengths of the sides, I can help you find the specific missing length!
