Problema Solution

The measure of the legs of a right triangle can be represented by the expressions (6x)(6x)y and (9x)(9x)y. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find a simplified expression for the measure of the hypotenuse.

Answer provided by our tutors

the hypotenuse 'c' of the right triangle with sides (6x)(6x)y and (9x)(9x)y is:


c^2 = ((6x)(6x)y)^2 + ((9x)(9x)y)^2


c^2 = 7857 x^4 y^2


c = 88.64 x^2 y
