No....I just want the answer (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in order to find the answer you have to use the Pythagorean theorem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is \[a ^{2}+b ^{2}=c ^{2} \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a=one side of the triangle b=the other side c=the hypotenuse

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Pythagorean theorem states that if you have a right triangle, the hypotenuse squared will equal the addition of the other sides squared. this is as JL stated where c is the hypotenuse, and a/b are sides of the triangle
