Answer:

20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying Pythagoras theorem in the given right triangle,

(Hypotenuse)² = (leg 1)² + (leg 2)²

(Hypotenuse)² = (12)² + (16)²

Hypotenuse = [tex]\sqrt{144+256}[/tex]

                     = [tex]\sqrt{400}[/tex]

                     = 20 inches

Therefore, measure of the hypotenuse of the given right triangles is 20 inches.
