Answer:
c = 13.0
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
c² = 11² + 7² = 121 + 49 = 170 ( take the square root of both sides )
c = [tex]\sqrt{170}[/tex] ≈ 13.0 ( to the nearest tenth )
