Answer:
13.04 units to the nearest hundredth.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagoras theorem:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 where a, b and c are the sides of a right triangle with c the hypotenuse.
In our triangle ( x = length of the hypotenuse):
x^2 = 13^2 + 1^2
x^2 = 169 + 1 = 170
x = √170
= 13.04.
If we are doing this mentally the best we can do is say that the hypotenuse is a small amount greater than 13.
