Question

1. Refer to the triangle below. If a = 5 and b = 5,
a. Find the exact length of c in unsimplified radical form
b. Find the exact length of c in simplified radical form
c. Find c to the nearest hundredth

Answer 1

\[c = \sqrt{a ^{2} + b ^{2}}\]

Answer 2

use pythagoras theorem

Answer 3

unsimplified would be either 10 or 25
simpilfed would be 0.07106
rounding would be 7.1

Answer 4

i did and it failed

Answer 5

*facepalm radical form

Answer 6

a) sqrt(50)
b) 5 sqrt(2)
c) 7.

Answer 7

c) 7.07
