The legs of a right triangle are 3 units and 8 units. what is the length of the hypotenuse? round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

8.54 units

9.54 units

11.00 units

24.00 units

and if you could explain that would be great

pythagoream thereom

a^2 + b^2 = c^2a and b are ur legs and c is the hypotenuse

3^2 + 6^2 = c^2

9 + 36 = c^2

45 = c^2...take the sqrt of both sidesthis eliminates the ^2

sqrt 45 = c

6.708 rounded = 6.71 = c <===
