The **`hypot()` function** in Ruby returns the `hypotenuse` of a right-angled triangle from its `length` and `base`, which are sent as parameters.

The mathematical formula to calculate the hypotenuse from `length` and `base` is as follows:
```ruby
hypotenuse = sqrt( length^2 + base^2 )
```

Figure 1 shows the visual representation of the `hypot()` function.

> This function requires the `Math` module.

# Syntax
```ruby
hypot(length, base)
```
# Parameters
This function requires `length` and `base` as parameters.

# Return value
This function returns the `hypotenuse` of the right-angled triangle from its `length` and `base`, which are sent as parameters.

# Example


# the hypotenuse of right angled triangle

# length=10
# base=10
print "The hypotenuse of triangle with length = 10 and base = 10: ",Math.hypot(10,10)," \n"

# length=4
# base=6
print "The hypotenuse of triangle with length = 4 and base = 6: ",Math.hypot(4,6)," \n"



What is hypot() in Ruby?

Calculates the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle using length and base parameters.
