exercise: pythagorean theorem problem 1
Determine the red line-segment by using the Pythagorean theorem:
answer: pythagorean theorem problem 1
1. step: given/wanted
leg 1: 25,6 m
leg 2: 18,2 m
wanted: hypotenuse ?
2. step: calculate
hypotenuse = √(leg 1² + leg 2²)
hypotenuse = √(25,6² + 18,2²)
hypotenuse = 31,4 m
3. step: answer
The hypotenuse is determined with 31,4 m.
