Answer 3

Find AC using pythagoras theorem

Answer 4

Do you know where to start?

Answer 5

I aint sure.

Answer 6

Use the pythagorean theorem which is a^2+b^2=c^2

Answer 7

How do i do it ?

Answer 8

like set it up?

Answer 9

@FaiqRaees

Answer 10

Insert the values of sides in the pythagoras theorem and work out the value of reamining side

Answer 11

c^2 is representing the side length of the hypotenuse

Answer 12

28?

Answer 13

Is that right?

Answer 17

Square each of the sides first and tell me what you get for each side

\[10^2 = ?\]

\[18^2 = ?\]

Answer 20

Hey @TylerMckinney16 do you know the Pythagoras theorm?

first, ask yourself in this figure what are we looking for a leg or hypothenuse and why?

Answer 21

well do this step by step whenever you're ready

Answer 22

Ready

Answer 23

in the figure I drew above circle the side we're looking for and tell me why you know this is the side you need to find.

Answer 24

Side thats opposite?

Answer 25

@Photon336

Answer 26

?

Answer 27

so yeah you need to find a leg, so this is how you would rearrange the formula

Answer 28

\[a^{2}+b^{2} = c^{2}\]

\[a = leg, b = leg, c = hypothenuse \]

Answer 29

since you know you need a leg, you have the hypothenuse and you have the other leg so you would re arrange your formula like this.

we're looking for one of our legs b

\[c^{2}-a^{2} = b^{2}\]

Answer 30

Then we take the square root of both sides. that's the opposite of squaring it.

\[\sqrt{c^{2}-a^{2}} = b\]

where
c = hypothenuse
and a is one of your leg lengths.

Answer 31

it's better to re-arrange the formula first then plug in your values @TylerMckinney16

Answer 32

Oh ok makes sense.

Answer 33

identify what you know and what you don't know then use the equations to solve for the unknown variable. then plug in your knowns after.

Answer 34

I have no idea lol.
