Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the longest size of a right angle is

[tex]c^{2} = a^{2} + {b}^{2}[/tex]

a = 28, b = ? and c = 53;

Therefore, if you make b the subject of the formula, you will have

[tex]b = \sqrt{ {c}^{2} - {a}^{2} } [/tex]

And after plugging the value of c=53 and a=28, b is gotten to be 45
