Answer:

The answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

The rule of a triangle is that it the other two sides could not be longer than longest side of the triangle. If the two sides added up together is greater than the longest side, the triangle would no longer be connected. Since 8 + 12 ft still works for the longest side of the triangle, it will be considered the length of the third side.

Answer:

B) 16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Longest side is the hypotenuse

20² = 12² + s²

400 - 144 = s²

s² = 256

s = 16
