What is the length of the missing leg? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
b = _____ meters
To determine the length of the missing leg (b) in a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that (a^2 + b^2 = c^2), where (c) is the hypotenuse, and (a) and (b) are the legs of the triangle.
If you have the lengths of one leg and the hypotenuse, you can rearrange the formula to solve for (b):
[b = sqrt{c^2 – a^2}]
1. Substitute the known values into the equation.
2. Calculate the values, and then round to the nearest tenth.
Feel free to provide the values for (a) and (c), and I can help you work it out!
