Pythagorean theorem

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

a=4,b=|dw:1326324751622:dw|

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

a^2+b^2=c^2

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

If I were you, I would not try and remember the pythagorus equation as:\[a^2+b^2=c^2\]but rather as:\[hypotenuse^2=side1^2+side2^2\]as you may run into "trick" questions where "c" is NOT the hypotenuse.

OpenStudy (pokemon23):

how would I solve this problem with a square root?

OpenStudy (asnaseer):

e.g.|dw:1326324926922:dw| here we have:\[a^2=b^2+c^2\]
