Hans wanted to find the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle. Which statement correctly identifies his error?
40 cm
9 cm
9?+40? - ?
81+80-c?
161 = C?
161 cm-C
He did not square 40, he just multiplied by 2.
He did not finish the problem. He should have divided 161 by 2 to find the square root.
He should have added 9 + 9 to find the value of g2
He should have subtracted the two squares to get 402-92-c? because numbers get too large if both legs are squared
