Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The rules for the hypotenuse is side a^2+side b^2=hypotenuse^2

a=3

b=4

3^2=9

4^2=16

9+16=25

5^2=25, so 5 is the hypotenuse.

Answer:

5 :D

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 3 and b = 4 are the two legs  

c = x is the unknown hypotenuse  

Use the pythagorean theorem to solve for c  

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  

3^2 + 4^2 = c^2  

9 + 16 = c^2  

25 = c^2  

c^2 = 25  

c = sprt(25)  

c = 5
