Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagoras theorem:

[tex](hypotenuse)^2 = a^2+ b^2\\\therefore hypotenuse = \sqrt{a^2+ b^2} \\\therefore hypotenuse = \sqrt{3^2+ 4^2} \\\therefore hypotenuse = \sqrt{9+ 16} \\\therefore hypotenuse = \sqrt{25} \\\therefore hypotenuse = 5\: units[/tex]
