To the nearest tenth, what is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle if one side measures 4.5 meters and the other side measures 9 meters?

1) 10.1 meters
2) 20.3 meters
3) 101.3 meters
4) 202.6 meters

C squared= a squared + b squared C squared = 4.5 squared + 9 squared C squared = 20.25 + 81 C squared = 101.25 Square root 101.25 you get 10.06 round up and you get the answer to be number 1

the answer is 1) 10.1 meters
According to the pythagora theorum,
h² = a² + b²
h² = 4.5² + 9²
= 20.25 + 81
thus, h² = 101.25
thus, h = √101.25
thus, h = 10.06230589 units, or 10.1 rounded to the nearest tenth
