Find the length of the missing side. the triangle not drawn to scale. (image attached)
will give brainliest to the first person to answer correctly and show your work : ))

8

Step-by-step explanation:

 The triangle shown in the image attached is a right triangle.

Therefore, to calculate the missing lenght of the triangle you can apply the Pythagorean Theorem, which is shown below:

Where a is the hypotenuse and b and c are the legs.

The problem gives you the value of the hypotenuse and the value of one leg. Therefore, you must solve for the other leg from , as following:

Therefore, the lenght of the missing side is: 8

The value of third side= 8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given a right angled triangle with base = 15 and hypotenuse = 17

We have to find the height of given triangle.

Points to remember

By Pythagorean theorem

Base² + Height² = Hypotenuse²

To find the third side

Here base = 15 and hypotenuse = 17

We have,

Base² + Height² = Hypotenuse²

Height² = Hypotenuse² - Base² = 17² - 15² = 64

Height = √64 = 8 units

Therefore the value of third side = 8 units
