Given:

The leg of 4 and 5

Find-:

The value of the hypotenuse

Explanation-:

The right triangle is:

Let the Hypotenuse is "x."

Use Pythagores theorm is:

[tex]\text{ Hypotenuse}^2=(\text{ Leg}_1)^2+(\text{ Leg}_2)^2[/tex]

So the value of "x" is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2=4^2+5^2 \\ \\ x^2=16+25 \\ \\ x^2=41 \\ \\ x=\sqrt{41} \end{gathered}[/tex]

So value of hypotenuse is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} =\sqrt{41} \\ \\ \approx6.403 \end{gathered}[/tex]
