A right triangle has a hypotenuse with a length of 130 cm. One leg has a length of 100 cm. What is the length of the other leg of the triangle? A. 130 B. 6900 C. 65 D. 130

B. √6900

Step-by-step explanation:

The square length of hypotenuse is equal to sum of square length of two legs let x  represent the other leg

130^2 = 100^2 + x^2

16900 = 10000 + x^2 subtract 10000 from both sides

6900 = x^2 find the root for both sides

x = √6900

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches
