OpenStudy (anonymous):
I'm reading that ^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
One second.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I'll try to solve.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Will you give me a minute?

oops error
the question is easy use the pythogoread formula
c^2=a^2+b^2
white dr is c westerfield is b and blue is a
now we plug in.
144= blue^2 + 13^2
^ that is already squared for you.
^ that is westerfield.
Solve for blue. Do you know how?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
on previous one i forgot to square the blue blvd one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay. Let me try to solve,alright?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Thank you,sir.

so basically 144=a^2+13^2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
YES
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay, ty. Let me solve for A now,then.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got '5' as 'a^2'.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think your diagram might be wrong tho

the longest street is suppose to be the c in the theorem.
white dr is sqrt (144)= 12 but westerfield is 13 which is longer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No, that's how it is on my sheet. That's okay. i can leave it as is.

Good observation, though.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so... would it be '144=5^2+13^2'?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it is wrong either blue is longer. But for sure westerfield is longer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5^2+13^2=194 nott 144 silly
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh right i forgot to square it.

Sorry bout that...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait wait wait..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how did you get 194?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you gave me 194
5^2+13^2
you gave that
25+169=194
You cant solve it until you fix the streets. You need to know the longest street. You cant just pick it.
white dr =12 but wester field is 13. 13 should be c
or blue but we dont even know what blue is. we can make blue c also to see if it works
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Oh right....Okay.

Fine, whatever you think is best.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Let's make blue C.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
make westerfield c and the numbers work better :)
c^2= b^2+b^2
169=144+b^2
^ wester field 13^2 is given so square it to get 169
^ white 144 was given and already squared
^ blue
now solve :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay. So...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
This might take a min or 2
