no. a^2+b^2=c^2. take 3^2+4^2 to find the hypotenuse
OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):
I'll tell you a little trick when you're done.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
25?

You don't even need Pythagorus, you could've just counted.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
square root?
OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):
did you get your final answer? and there's a trick about that triangle. It's a 3 4 5 triangle.. meaning whenever the legs are 3 and 4, the hypotenuse with be 5. If you remember that, things will be a lot easier for you. Same goes for 6 8 and 10..

Yes, if you're using Pythagorean theorem \[a^2+b^=c^2 \implies c = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the answer is 5
