What's the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle, to the nearest tenth?Question options:A) 44.2B) 57.3C) 40.6D) 49.2

The Pythagorean theorem states:
[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
Substituting with a = 25, and b = 32, and solving for c:
[tex]\begin{gathered} c^2=25^2+32^2 \\ c^2=625+1024 \\ c^2=1649 \\ c=\sqrt[]{1649} \\ c=40.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]
