Use the Pythagorean Theorm formula is : a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (8)^2 +(4)^2 = c^2

OpenStudy (zale101):

Can u do it from up here?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

64+16=c^2 80=c^2 8.9=c?

OpenStudy (zale101):

Correct!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Zale101 the choices are: 8√2 8√3 16 4

OpenStudy (zale101):

what does 8√2 and 8√3 equal to?

OpenStudy (zale101):

Can u calculate it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11.31 and 13.85?

@Zale101

OpenStudy (zale101):

Since square root of 80 is 8.94, the two numbers between 8.94 is 8 and 9.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Zale101 so isn't it either 8√2 or 8√3?

OpenStudy (zale101):

i'd go with 8√2, based on what i scaled

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks! can you help me find the length of AM?

OpenStudy (zale101):

How did u do u find the AC, find it on AM. If u have any problem ask me.

OpenStudy (zale101):

let me know if uunderstand the concept or not. Ok :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know we have to use: a^2 + b^2 = c^2 but what do we plug in for b?
