If l =12 cm and m =5 cm what is the length of n
a square root of 119 cm
b 10 cm
c 13 cm
d 14 cm

You have to use the Pythagorean Theorem. Follow what I do, and if you have any questions be sure to tell me. a^2+b^2=c^2 This is the formula. But don't get worried by the variables, you can always switch a and b for l and m. Also c can be switched for n. So not to get this confusing, I will substitute the letterings for you, l^2+m^2=n^2 Lets now substitute the variables with the numbers. 12^2+5^2=c^2 169=c^2 Remember that n equals to the square root of 169. n= √169 n=13
