Answered by admin @



Answer:

5..(b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras theorem states that

Hypotenuse(squared)=opposite(squared)+ adjacent(squared)

hypotenuse=?,opposite=3,adjacent=4

hyp(squared)=3(squared)+4(squared)

hyp(squared)=9+16

hyp(squared)=25

find the square root of both sides

hypotenuse=5
