Hello!


To find our answer, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem. This is a²+b²=c², where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.


As you can see, AB is the hypotenuse. Therefore we just plug in values for a and b, or the other sides that are legs.


2²+4²=c²

4+16=c²


To find c, we undo our exponent by adding a square root to both sides.


c=√20


Therefore, our answer is B.


I hope this helps!
