What is the length of the missing leg? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. b = _____ feet

To find the length of the missing leg (b) in a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that (a^2 + b^2 = c^2), where (c) is the length of the hypotenuse, and (a) and (b) are the lengths of the other two legs.

1. Identify the lengths of the legs you know (let’s say (a)) and the hypotenuse ((c)).
2. Rearrange the equation to solve for (b):

[

b = sqrt{c^2 – a^2}

]
3. Substitute the known values and calculate.

For a precise answer, I would need the lengths of the legs and the hypotenuse. If you can provide those, I can help you calculate (b)!
