are you given any daigram

katie_rogers101 · Answer

Unfortuantly no I am not. I am trying to solve for b that is all it tells me. @xapproachesinfinity

xapproachesinfinity · Answer

so I'm assuming you need to find b for each case?

katie_rogers101 · Answer

yes. I found them when the problems were simple just giving numbers for a and c but I don't know how to find them when a number is being squrt

xapproachesinfinity · Answer

okay! usually you should have a diagram with this question showing the sides of a triangle
what a is and what c is

xapproachesinfinity · Answer

I will assume c is the hypotenuse, but really it depends on the picture provided
