Answer:
[tex]? =9.16515139[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
→You can use the Pythagorean Theorem:
[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]
→The "a," and "b," are the legs, and the "c," is the hypotenuse. In this case, we area already given the hypotenuse (10), and are solving for the leg. So plug in the numbers, like so:
[tex]4^2+b^2=10^2[/tex]
[tex]16 + b^2=100[/tex]
→Subtract 16 from both sides:
[tex]b^2 = 84[/tex]
→To get "b," by itself, square root both sides, like so:
[tex]\sqrt{b^2} = \sqrt{84}[/tex]
[tex]b = 9.16515139[/tex]
