Answer:  12.65

====================================

Work Shown:

a^2+b^2 = c^2  ... pythagorean theorem

c = sqrt(a^2+b^2)

c = sqrt(4^2+12^2)

c = 12.6491106406736

c = 12.65

Answer:

[tex]4 \sqrt{10} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Height of the triangle = 4

Base of the triangle = 12

Therefore,

Hypotenuse of the triangle

[tex] {(base)}^{2} + {(height)}^{2} = {(hypotenuse)}^{2} [/tex]

[tex] = > {(12)}^{2} + {(4)}^{2} = {(hypotenuse)}^{2} [/tex]

[tex] = > {(hypotenuse)}^{2} = 144 + 16[/tex]

[tex] = > {(hypotenuse)}^{2} = 160[/tex]

[tex] = > hypotenuse = \sqrt{160} [/tex]

[tex] = > hupotenuse = \sqrt{5 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2} [/tex]

[tex] = > hypotenuse = 2 \times 2 \sqrt{5 \times 2} [/tex]

[tex] = > hypotenuse = 4 \sqrt{10} \: (ans)[/tex]
