it's from my online class @misty1212
OpenStudy (misty1212):
not trying to be troublesome, the answer they want is
\[\sqrt{\sqrt{5}^2+4^2}=\sqrt{5+16}=\sqrt{21}\] but the question is really really wrong
OpenStudy (misty1212):
what on line class? FLVS?
OpenStudy (misty1212):
amazing huh?
OpenStudy (misty1212):
you know the tangent, so you know the lengths of the sides!!

yeah
you are talking about because the legs don't necessarily have to be sqrt(5) and 4
it could be k*sqrt(5) and k*4
where k>0
which would mean the hyp is
\[\sqrt{5k^2+16k^2}=\sqrt{21k^2}=\sqrt{21} k\]
