Answer:

15m

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to do the Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

*(The ^ is meaning to a power or squared in this case)*

You are solving for c which is the hypothenuse!

12^2 + 9^2 = c^2

144+81 = c^2

225 = c^2  *(The opposite of squaring something is the square root)*

c= The square root of 225

That shall be simplified to 15

According to Pythagoras theorem

Base² + perpendicular ² = Hypotenuse ²

12² + 9² = H²

144 + 81 = H²

225 = H²

H = √225

H = 15

Hypotenuse = 15m
