help!!!
@Addya next time you should post the problem before going offline so that way people can help you
@ScarlettFarra2000 I believe they are using the app and are confused...
There's an app for this?
there is but it's not great
it's pretty hard to ask questions
here is the picture addya has tried sharing with us
the question is on the attachment
addya, if you have a computer, you might have a better experience with getting a proper answer ^_^
I believe we are looking for \(b\) @addya are you aware of the Pythagorean Theorem? :) \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\) in this case a = 3 and c = 5 and we are looking for b
@jigglypuff314 that makes sense. I got b=4 as my final answer because the square root of 16 is 4. right?
@addya that is correct! good job!
@jigglypuff314 may you help me with the others? I'm not sure I get it
of course ^_^ but please try attaching your pictures as a comment instead of in the actual question part, it helps us computer users see it better :)
@jigglypuff314 my teacher wouldn't let us bring the book home. so I had to take pictures..
That's alright, the pictures are quite clear, thanks! This is the same idea with the Pythagorean Theorem \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\) but this time a = 4 b = 4 and we are looking for c
for question 4 or 5??
4
I got to where I need the square root of 32. am I correct so far?
yes :)
I guess I could leave it at c=the square root of 32
that is what our teacher told us to do if there is no whole number as a square root
Can I ask a question in here cause I can't get my "ask a question" to work
yes, then that would be correct great job!
@L094N16 try reloading your page, but please do not ask your question on someone else's post
reloading it did zero good I already tried it.
for number 5 I got x^2=the square root of 260
are you sure it's 260 and not 160? :)
I meant 160. oops.. but is there a square root for that?
I believe you can simplify it to 4 times square root of 10
I'm a little confused..
square root of 160 equals square root of 16 times 10 equals 4 times the square root of 10
13
huh?
oh my. I'm really confused on #5
you were right about square root of 160 I was just suggesting that you can simplify it to a weird 2 times square root of 10 but you don't have to :)
okay.. so there is no whole number as the square root?
no there is not
