Answer:
The hypotenuse is [tex]\sqrt{58}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
3^2 + 7^2 = c^2
9 + 49 = c^2
58 = c^2
Taking the square root of each side
[tex]\sqrt{58} = \sqrt{c^2}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{58} =c[/tex]
