Watch help video The hypotenuse of a right triangle measures 17 cm and one of its legs measures 8 cm. Find the measure of the other leg. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

[tex]\begin{gathered} H^2=P^2+B^2 \\ 17^2=8^2+B^2 \\ B^2=289-64 \\ B^2=225 \\ B=\sqrt[]{225} \\ B=15\text{ cm} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, other leg is 15 cm
