Answer :

Answer:

Length of BC = 12 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

ΔABC is a right angle triangle

Length of AB = 9 inch

Length of AC = 15 inch

Find;

Length of BC

Computation:

Using Pythagoreans theorem;

Hypotenues² = parpendicular² + Base²

Step 1 :

AC² = AB² + BC²

Step 2 :

15² = 9² + BC²

Step 3 :

225 = 81 + BC²

Step 4 :

225 - 81 = BC²

Step 5 :

BC² = 144

Step 6 :

BC = √144

Step 7 :

BC = 12 inch

Length of BC = 12 inch
