Question

On a right triangle if a= 3 and b=3 what would c be?

Answer 1

using the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + 3^2 = c^2

9 + 9 = c^2

...
...
...

c = ???

Answer 2

Okay so whatever c is I have to square that?

Answer 3

the opposite actually, you have to take the square root

Answer 4

c^2 = 18

so

c = ???

Answer 5

C would equal 4.24?

Answer 6

correct

Exact answer: \(\large c = 3\sqrt{2}\)

Approximate answer: \(\large c \approx 4.24264068711929\)

and you can round the approximate answer however you need to

Answer 7

Oh okay well thank you very much!
