Find the value of c.
The is a right scalene triangle and the right side of the tringle is 12 the left side is c and the bottom is 11.
1. square root of 121
2. square root of 144
3. square root of 265
4. square root of 132
To find the value of c, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
In this case, the left side of the triangle is c, the bottom side is 11, and the right side is 12. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can write the equation:
c^2 + 11^2 = 12^2
Simplifying this equation:
c^2 + 121 = 144
c^2 = 144 - 121
c^2 = 23
To find the square root of 23, we see that none of the given options match this value. Therefore, none of the provided options is the value of c.
