I was supposed to solve for z and im not sure if im doing this right.

|dw:1418788358009:dw|

\[a^2 + b^2 = c^2?\]

OpenStudy (oreolover4876):

yeah I did all of that and I got stuck at 64 + 196=c^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add and take the square root

OpenStudy (anonymous):

64+196=260 160=c^2 Now we take the square root on both sides \[\sqrt{260}=\sqrt{c^2}\] \[\sqrt{260}=c\]

OpenStudy (oreolover4876):

Thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well we can simplify sqrt 260 to \[\sqrt{260}=\sqrt{4*65}=2 \sqrt{65}\]
