In order to have a hypotenuse, the triangle must be a right triangle - in this case we have an isosceles right triangle. Using the Pythagorean theorem:
a2 + b2 = c2
152 + 152 = c2
225 + 225 = c2
450 = c2
c = √450
c = √2*9*25
c = 15√2

I assume you mean a right triangle. Use the Pythagorean theorem.a2 + b2 = c2c2 = 152 + 82c = sqrt(152 + 82)c(hypotenuse) = 17==============
