Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf H = 7.5\ inches}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Base = 4.5 inches

Perpendicular = 6 inches

We can find the hypotenuse by Pythgoras theorem.

[tex]\sf (Hypotenuse)^2=(Base)^2+(Perpendicular)^2[/tex]

Put the given values

(H)² = (4.5)² + (6)²

(H)² = 20.25 + 36

(H)² = 56.25

Take sqrt on both sides

H = √56.25

H = 7.5 inches
