उत्तर

Let ∆PQR be the given right-angled triangle.

In ∆PQR, ∠Q = 90°

∴ PR2 = PQ2 + QR2 .......[Pythagoras theorem]

∴ PR2 = 92 + 12

∴ PR2 = 81 + 144

∴ PR2 = 225

∴ PR = `sqrt(225)` .....[Taking the square root of both sides]

∴ PR = 15 cm 

∴ The length of the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle is 15 cm.
