Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{BC=\sqrt{13}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\text{If}\ a\leq b\leq c\ \text{are lengths of sides of a right triangle, then}\\\\a^2+b^2=c^2.\\\\\text{We have:}\ 2<3<\sqrt{13}\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\2^2+3^2=(\sqrt{13})^2\qquad\text{use}\ (\sqrt{a})^2=a\\4+9=13\\13=13\qquad\bold{CORRECT}\\\\\text{The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle.}\\\text{Therefore}\ BC=\sqrt{13}[/tex]
