Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First off, since we're talking about finding the correct hypotenuse for the triangle, we know to use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2+b^2=c^2
Since we know from the question, 32 and 22 are not the hypotenuse we know that those two values would be a and b. Now, all we do is stick these both into the equation and solve!
[tex]32^2+22^2=c^2[/tex]
[tex]1024+484=c^2[/tex]
[tex]1508=c^2[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{1508}=c[/tex]
[tex]c=38.83cm[/tex]
