Use the pythagorean theorem to find the length of the missing side of a right triangle whose legs equal √2 and 2√15. a right triangle with legs as 2 square root of 15 and square root of 2.
a. 64
b. 4 + 2√15
c. 8
d. none of the above

The sides of a right triangle are called the 'legs' and the 'hypotenuse'.
Since you've given us the lengths of the 'legs', the missing side is the 'hypotenuse'

The square of the length of the hypotenuse is

         (square of the length of one leg) + (square of the length of the other leg).

                 Hypotenuse²  =  (√2)² + (2√15)²  = 

                                           (2)  +  (4 x 15)  =

                                            2   +    60       =  62.

                                                          Hypotenuse²    =  62

Take the square root of each side:        Hypotenuse = √62 =  7.874  (rounded)

None of the choices given is close enough.
It must be "none of the above".
 

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The height for each of the five players being referred to in the question was not omitted. However, here is how to find the median height.

Median is one of the measures of central tendency, and it is simply the middle value of any given data set that is being arranged in ascending order.

Hypothetically, let's assume the heights of the boys in meters, when arranged in ascending order gives us: 1.6, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, therefore, the median height of the 5 players on Deandra's team would be 1.7.
