The legs of a right triangle have the following measurements: 5 and 10 inches. What is the length of the hypotenuse?? show work.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

2.

3.

approximately 11.18 inches or inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to use Pythagorean Theorem for this problem. a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where c is the hypotenuse and a/b are legs of the right triangle.

5^2 + 10^2 = c^2, 25 + 100 = c^2, 125 = c^2, sqrt125 = c

sqrt125 can be simplified to 5sqrt5 (25 * 5 = 125, sqrt25 = 5)

The hypotenuse is approximately 11.18 inches or inches.

I would say D. Considering the two definitions I found were: a half open steep sided hallow at the head of a valley or a mountainside formed by glacier erosion; a ring or a circle. Looking at these two definitions, your best bet would be D.
Hope this helped!
