The length of the other leg of the right triangle will be 13.86 cm.
The complete question is given below.
The triangle BCD is a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse is 19 centimeters. The length of one of the legs is 13 centimeters.
What is the length of the other leg?
The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of two squares equals the squared of the longest side.
The Pythagoras theorem formula is given as
H² = P² + B²
Let the unknown sides be x. Then we have,
19² = 13² + x²
361 = 169 + x²
x² = 361 – 169
x² = 192
x = 13.856 ≈ 13.86 cm
