Answer:

[tex]b[/tex] ≈ [tex]12.0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean theorem: [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex] where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

[tex]12^2+b^2=17^2\\144+b^2=289\\[/tex]

Subtract 144 from both sides

[tex]b^2=145\\[/tex]

Square root both sides

[tex]b=\sqrt{145}[/tex]

[tex]b[/tex] ≈ [tex]12.0[/tex]
