Question

find the missing side length. Tell whether the side lengths form a Pythagorean Triplehttps://courseplayer.avalearning.com/NeutralLMS/coursefiles/Questions/145320/26%2014.jpg

Answer 1

\[a^2+b^2=c^2\]in this case we can say b is 8 and c is 14, giving\[a^2 + 8^2 = 14^2\]We can solve this to find a. If a is an integer then we have found a pythagorean triple. Does that help?
