Question: Find the length of the unknown side, correct to 1 decimal place if necessary.
 A ) 19.8 B ) 18.5 C ) 17.2 D ) 19
Steps to derive
1 We can find the length of the unknown side of the right-angled triangle, using Pythagoras′ theorem.
2 The square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. 192 = 82 + e2 [Pythagoras′ theorem]
3 361 = 64 + e2 [192 = 361 and 82 = 64]
4 361 - 64 = e2
[Subtract 64 on both the sides.]
5 e2 = 297
6 e = 297 [Take square root on both sides.]
7 So, e = 17.2
Hence the right answer is Option C
