If the hypotenuse is 41 inches, and one of the legs is 40 inches, what is the length of the other leg in inches?
A.65
B.57
C.25
D.9
Is the answer C?
Answered by Brady
No, B is the correct answer.


a^2 + b^2 = c^2

41^2 + 40^2 = c^2

1,681 + 1,600 = c^2

3,281 = c^2

57.280013966478744216755301515065 = c

57.280013966478744216755301515065 is closer to any of the other answers, so B is the answer.

I hope this helps you understand! :)

Careful Brady. In this question it's

41^2 = 40^2 + x^2

Ignore me, GanonTek is correct.

So what's the answer if mine is wrong???
Answered by GanonTEK
41^2 = 40^2 + x^2
1681 = 1600 + x^2
81 = x^2
9 = x

Answered by Anonymous
@Brady is incorrect. That's okay though! The answer is a.

1600 + b^2 = 1681
-1600 - 1600
---------------------------
b^2 = 81

Therefore, b = 9
