Question
Answer:
Solve for hypotenuseHypotenuse = [tex] \sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}} [/tex]
Substitute 3 for A and 4 for B
[tex] \sqrt{3^{2}+4^{2}} [/tex]
Solve exponents
3^2 = 9
4^2 = 16
[tex] \sqrt{9+16} [/tex]
Add
9 + 16 = 25
[tex] \sqrt{25}[/tex]
Solve square root
[tex] \sqrt{25}[/tex] = 5
5 is your answer
