Work out the lengths of side a and side b 8cm and 5 cm 1 triangle 17cm and 12 cm on the other triangle pythagoras

a = 9.4 cm

b = 12.0 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the image uploaded for diagram;

For the first diagram, side length a is calculated as follows;

a² = 8²  +  5²

a² = 64  +  25

a² = 89

a = √89

a = 9.4 cm ( approximated to 1 decimal place)

For the second diagram, side length b is calculated as follows;

b² = 17²  -  12²

b² = 145

b = √145

b = 12.0 cm (approximated to 1 decimal place)
