find the length of the missing side of the triangle to the nearest tenth

Answer:
1) a = 8.944
2) b = 14.45
3) c = 10.29
4) a = 18.76
5) b = 8
6) c = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the third side in each case by using Pythagora's theorem.
hypothenuse² = (adjascent cathetus)² + (oposite cathetus)²
1)
12² = a² + 8²
a² = 12² - 8²
a = sqrt(144 - 64)
a = sqrt(80) = 8.944
2)
15² = b² + 4²
b = sqrt(15² - 4²)
b = sqrt(225 - 16)
b = sqrt(209) = 14.45
3)
c² = 5² + 9²
c = sqrt(25 + 81) = sqrt(106)
c = 10.29
4)
26² = 18² + a²
a² = 26² - 18²
a = sqrt(26² - 18²)
a = sqrt(352) = 18.76
5)
10² = b² + 6²
b² = 10² - 6²
b = sqrt(10² - 6²)
b = sqrt(100 - 36)
b = sqrt(64) = 8
6)
c² = 9² + 12²
c = sqrt(9² + 12²)
c = sqrt(81 + 144)
c = sqrt(225) = 15
Answer:
I have seen a lot of people answer this but no one really got the answer I was looking for, the question asked you to add it and round it and no one did that, so I had to round everything and add it up and I got 75.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
When I put the other answer in it said it was wrong, but when I put 75.5 it disappeared and it let me answer the next one.
