Answer :

Answer:

89-6^2 = 53 so the third side is

[tex] \sqrt{53} [/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\sqrt{53}[/tex]

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 third side, then

x² + 6² = ([tex]\sqrt{89}[/tex] )² , that is

x² + 36 = 89 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

x² = 53 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = [tex]\sqrt{53}[/tex] ← length of third side
