Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image you've provided shows a right triangle with sides labeled , , and . In a right triangle, the longest side, opposite the right angle, is called the hypotenuse, labeled as . The other two sides, and , are the legs of the triangle.
The relationship between the sides of a right triangle is given by the Pythagorean Theorem:
Here:
- and are the lengths of the legs,
- is the hypotenuse.
Would you like to solve for one of these sides if we know the values for the other two, or do you have another question related to this triangle?
Feel free to provide values or ask further details.
