Line segment AD, is that an 8 or B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The right triangle at the left has legs 8 and 15, so 8^2 + 15^ = c^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is 8^2+15^2=

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk wat do i do after tht help lol

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

You need that value of c to add to 19 and 5 for your final answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8x8 15x15?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

After you find 8^2+15^2= , take the square root of that.
