Answer:

Square root 112 units

Step-by-step explanation:

What's Pythagorean Theorem?

  • Pythagorean Theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other legs.
  • It's represented as [tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex], where a and b are legs and c is hypotenuse

Let's use Pythagorean Theorem to solve this problem. In this problem we're giving the variables of a and c.

  • [tex]3^2 + b^2 = 11^2[/tex]
  • [tex]9 + b^2 = 121[/tex]

Now, we solve for b.

Step 1: Subtract 9 from both sides.

  • [tex]9+b^2-9 = 121 - 9[/tex]
  • [tex]b^2 = 112[/tex]

Step 2: Take square root of both sides.

  • [tex]\sqrt{b^2} = \sqrt{112}[/tex]
  • [tex]b = \sqrt{112}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is square root of 12 units.
