Did you post this from your phone?? I think you mean hypotenuse, not hypo tennis!!

So Am wrong?
Ahhh, the pitfalls of auto-correct.
let the "hypo tennis" be x
x^2 = 9^2+ 12^2 ----> you should know this formula
= 81 + 144
= 225
x = √225 = 15
Thank You...
To find the hypotenuse of a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
In this case, the legs of the right triangle are given as 9 centimeters and 12 centimeters.
So, using the Pythagorean theorem, you can calculate the hypotenuse as follows:
Hypotenuse^2 = 9^2 + 12^2
Hypotenuse^2 = 81 + 144
Hypotenuse^2 = 225
To find the value of the hypotenuse, you need to take the square root of both sides:
Hypotenuse = √225
Since 15^2 is 225, the hypotenuse of the right triangle with legs of 9 centimeters and 12 centimeters is 15 centimeters.
Therefore, the correct answer is 15.
