A right triangle has a leg that measures 15 ft and the hypotenuse measures 24 ft. What would the length of the missing leg be to the nearest whole number?

x=19

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you place the numbers in place of the variables in their relative positions using the pythagorean theorem:

Then you square the numbers that you currently have:

Then subtract 225 from both sides to isolate the x:

This gives you the equation:

Then take the square root of both sides which gives you:

Then round to the nearest whole number which gives you x=19

step-by-step explanation:

it's possible to build a triangle with side lengths of 3, 3, and 9.- true ( b.)
