Answer:

90 squared is 8,100, and 120 squared is 14,400. So to figure out what c is you do 90^2 + 120^2 = Square Root of 22,500 which is 150.

So c = 150

Step-by-step explanation:

So C=150

hope this helps :D

By using the Pythagorean theorem, we will see that side C measures 150ft.

How to get the length of side C?

We can see that side C is the hypotenuse of a right triangle. We know both catheti of said triangle, then we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

It says that the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. Then we have:

A^2 + B^2  = C^2

We know that:

A = 90ft

B = 120ft

Replacing that we get:

√((90ft)^2 + (120ft)^2) = C = 150ft

Then we conclude that side C measures 150ft.
