Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
Look up Pythagoras' Theorem.
In a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
In this triangle, x2 = 232 – 162
x2 = 529 – 256
x = sqrt(273)
x = 16.5
.
Correct
The precise answer is: 16.5227116419
