The area of the right triangle shown is 30 ft squared. The segment XY has a length of 5 ft. Find the length of the hypotenuse.

Answer:
Hypotenuse is 13 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
A=(1/2)bh
30=(1/2)(5)(h)
30=2.5h
h=12 so ZY = 12ft
Then
[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2} \\5^{2} +12^{2} =c^{2} \\25+144=c^{2} \\169=c^{2}\\13=c[/tex]
