Applying the leg rule, the value of z in the right triangle given is: √30 units.
What is the Leg Rule?
The leg rule states that, hypotenuse/leg = leg/part.
Given the following:
- Leg = z units
- Part = 3 units
- Hypotenuse = 3 + 7 = 10 units
Plug in the values into the leg rule:
10/z = z/3
z² = (10)(3)
z² = 30
z = √30 units
