If a right triangle has a hypotenuse of 13 inches and a leg of 5 inches, how could you use the pythagorean theorem to find the missing side? what is the length of the missing side?

12,5,13 are Pythagorean triplets..

so, missing side will be 12 inches

hope it helps

Hyp^2 = Base^2 + perpendicular^2

You would use 13 as C and 5 as A or B set it up like a normal equation the square of 13 is 169 and the square of 5 is 25 subtract to get 144 square root to give you the answer of 12 

15,12, 5
