Correct Answer: 3.25 cm
Solution : Given: XYZ is a right-angled triangle and $\angle$Y = 90°, where XY = 2.5 cm and YZ = 6 cm. Let the hypotenuse of the triangle be $h$ cm. So, $h^2=6^2+(2.5)^2$ ⇒ $h=\sqrt{42.25}$ ⇒ $h=6.5$ cm We know, The circumradius of a right-angled triangle is half of its hypotenuse. So, the circumradius = $\frac{6.5}{2}$ = 3.25 cm Hence, the correct answer is 3.25 cm.
