The given triangle is

02

Step 2. Apply Pythagoras Theorem

  • In the given triangle, the length of one of the legs is 8. So, a=8.
  • The length of the hypotenuse is 13. So, c=13.
  • Substitute the values into the Pythagoras Theorem, and solve for the unknown variable b.

82+b2=13264+b2=169b2=105b=105

  • So, the length of the unknown side is 105.
