In right triangle ABC, \(\angle c = 90\) . Median AM has a length of 19 and median BN has a length of 18. What is the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle?

I appreciate any help!

The length of the hypotenuse is 16*sqrt(2).

Notice how we have 3 right triangles. 

Use the pythagorean theorem to set up 3 equations. 

How can we manipulate 2 of the equations to find the hypotenuse of the triangle?

I hope this helps. :))
