To solve this problem, use the Pythagorean Theorem.

The Pythagorean Theorem states that a2+b2=c2, where a and b are the two sides of the triangle by the right angle and c is the side opposite the right angle

102+152=c2

100+225=c2

325=c2

The square root of 325=c

5 times the square root of 13=c OR 18.03=c, where c is equal to the slope.
