If people are 40 feet high in the building and the fire truck is 30 feet away, how long does the ladder from the truck to the building have to be? The two given sides are the legs, which means you have to solve for the HYPOTENUSE 40FT hypotenuse. c = 1600 + 900 = 2500 30T c = 50 ft. The ladder should be 50 feet. What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs that are 7 and 8 inches long?
