Answer:
The answer would be 8.1 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we are going to use the pythagorean theorum, which is the sum of the two legs (each individually squared) is the hypotenuse squared, giving us this equation:
a² + b² = c². (a and b are legs, c is hypotenuse).
For our problem, we will be substituting 7 and 4 for a and b (order does not matter) and the total sum is going to be 65. Then we would square root the 65 ([tex]\sqrt{65}[/tex]) and get a total of 8.062, which rounds to our final answer, 8.1 inches.
