Sagot :

Answer:

16.5 cm

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.

let x be the other leg, then

x² + 13² = 21²

x² + 169 = 441 ( subtract 169 from both sides )

x² = 272 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = [tex]\sqrt{272}[/tex] ≈ 16.5 cm ( to the nearest tenth )
