Answer

C=6.1

Work Step by Step

The legs are 1.1 and 6. You have to find the hypotenuse using $a^{2}$+$b^{2}$=$c^{2}$. Plug in the legs for A and B: $a^{2}$+$b^{2}$=$c^{2}$ $1.1^{2}$+$6^{2}$=$c^{2}$ -simplify exponents- 1.21+36=$c^{2}$ -simplify- 37.21=$c^{2}$ -find the square root of 37.21 to solve for c- 6.1=c The hypotenuse is 6.1.
