HINT: \(6^2+8^2 = 10^2\)

OpenStudy (exoexoexo):

this is from a work sheet @jdoe0001

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

@EXOEXOEXO notice geerky42 's hint can you make anything out of it? recall the pythagorean theorem

i mean work book

OpenStudy (exoexoexo):

i didn't learn pythagorean theorem

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
