Answer:/Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply pythagorean theorem to find the variable in each triangle.

Pythagorean theorem is given as: c² = a² + b², where c is the hypotenuse length or longest leg while a and b are the two other legs.

Thus:

a. h² = (√20)² + 4²

h² = 20 + 16

h² = 36

h = √36

h = 6 units

b. t² = 9² - (√17)²

t² = 81 - 17

t² = 64

t = √64

t = 8 units

c. h² = (√8)² + (√8)²

h² = 8 + 8

h² = 64

h = √64

h = 8
