7.8
because, the formula for a hypotenuse is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
the hypotenuse is "c" and the legs of the triangle are "a" and "b"
5^2 + 6^2 = c^2 5^2=25 6^2=36 so 25+36=c^2 25+36=61 so 61=c^2 square root each side and you get "c" equaling (to the nearest tenth) 7.8

Yes
If the side opposite angle A of a right triangle is 30 meters and the hypotenuse is 90 meters what is the value of the sin of angle A Round the answer to the nearest hundredth?

What is the perimeter of the isosceles triangle shown below If necessary round to the nearest hundredth.?
I don't see any isosceles triangle below.In general, the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides. Note that in an isosceles triangle, two of the three sides have the same length.
Find the length of the missing side of each right triangle to the nearest tenth legs of 4 cm and 6 cm leg of 9 m hypotenuse of 15 m leg of 36 ft hypotenuse of 39 ft legs of 28 cm and 45?
# 4 and 6 give a hypotenuse of √(42 + 62) = √(16 + 36) = √52 = 7.2111 = 7.2 to nearest tenth. # 9 and X give a hypotenuse of 15 so 152 = 92+ X2 which gives 225 = 81 + X2 which gives 144 = X2 which gives 12 = X # 36 and Y give a hypotenuse of 39 so 392 = 362+ Y2 which gives 1521 = 1296 + Y2 which gives 225 = Y2 which gives 15 = Y # 28 and 45 give a hypotenuse of √(262 + 452) = √(676 + 2025) = √2701 = 51.9711 = 52 to the nearest tenth.
What is 21 centimeters long correct to the nearest centimeters?
21 cm
Approximate to the nearest thousandth of a centimeter the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of 3 centimeters each?
If both legs of a right triangle are the same, then it forms what is known as a "45-45-90 triangle". In this type of triangle, the hypotenuse is always √2 times more than the legs. So in this problem, with legs 3cm and 3cm, the hypotenuse is 3√2cm, or 4.243cm
What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of lengths 9 and 12 rounded to the nearest tenth?
9.0
The legs of a right triangle measure 7m and 9m what is the length of its hypotenuse to the nearest tenth of a meter?
The hypotenuse measures 11.4 meters in length.
To the nearest tenth what is the length of the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle with a leg of 12.1 inches?
Using Pythagoras' theorem the length of the hypotenuse is 17.1 inches
If the hypotenuse of an isosceles triangle is 16cm the other sides would be 11.31541 rounded tothe nearest tenth 11.3cm?
Yes
In the triangle BC 12 cm and tan C0.583. What is the length of the hypotenuse round to the nearest tenth of a centimeter?
The simplest answer, requiring no calculation, is that BC is the hypotenuse and so the length is 12 cm.
If the side opposite a 30 degree angle in a right triangle is 12.5 meters how long is the hypotenuse rounded the answer to the nearest tenth?
The answer rounded to the nearest tenth is 25 meters.
One leg of a right triangle is 5 cm long The hypotenuse is 13 cm long What is the length of the second leg of the triangle Round to the nearest tenth?
12 cm

If c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle find the missing side. If necessary round to the nearest hundredth. B 11 a 4 c?
11.70
If the side opposite a 30 and ocirc angle in a right triangle is 12.5 meters how long is the hypotenuse (Round the answer to the nearest tenth.)?
If you mean an angle of 30 degrees then the hypotenuse is 12.5/sin(30) = 25.0 meters
