Answer:

4.03cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the diameter of the circumscribed circle to the right triangle is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

To get the diameter, we will use the pythagoras theorem as shown;

d² = 7² + 4²

d² = 49 + 16

d² = 65

d = √65

d = 8.0622577

Since radius = d/2

radius = 8.0622577/2

radius = 4.0311288

Hence the radius of the circumscribed circle to the nearest hundredth is 4.03cm
