Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem you've uploaded reads:
The length of the sides of a right-angled triangle is cm and cm. Find if is the hypotenuse.
We can solve this using the Pythagorean theorem, which states:
Given:
- Hypotenuse =
- One leg =
- Other leg =
From the problem, it seems we are missing the length of the second leg, but it appears to be one of two standard setups:
- If the sides are and , then both legs are equal to .
- If the side lengths are and something like , we would need clarification.
Since you haven't mentioned the second leg clearly, let me know if you'd like to confirm or if the second leg is missing from the image.
I will continue with assumption (1), where both legs are equal, and we can set up the equation:
Let me know if you'd like me to proceed with solving this!
