Answer:
c = 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
We know the length of the legs, 2 and 5
2^2+ 5^2 = c^2
4 + 25 = c^2
29 = c^2
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(29) = sqrt(c^2)
5.385164807 =c
Rounding to the nearest tenth
5.4 =c
