Ok first, what do you know about Pythagoreans Theorem?

06natrod52378:

Nothing

KiWiPoP1:

Ok one thing you need to know is the formula

KiWiPoP1:

1 attachment
06natrod52378:

ok

KiWiPoP1:

a^2 +b^2= c^2

KiWiPoP1:

Now you need to substitute

KiWiPoP1:

But since one of the formula's are missing, you aren't finding what C is, you're finding B

06natrod52378:

ok

06natrod52378:

how do i do that?

KiWiPoP1:

|dw:1613168573975:dw|

KiWiPoP1:

using this formula, substitute these letters with these numbers

06natrod52378:

what is a?

KiWiPoP1:

A=5

06natrod52378:

ohh

06natrod52378:

how do i find b?

KiWiPoP1:

ok since you dont have the sides you need to put the squared numbers in standard form, what is 5^2 and 20^2

06natrod52378:

10, and 40?

KiWiPoP1:

nope

KiWiPoP1:

square multiply them

06natrod52378:

?

06natrod52378:

what do i put in desmos?

KiWiPoP1:

have you learned about square roots?

06natrod52378:

this?

1 attachment
KiWiPoP1:

yes, now have you heard of a number, lets say 3 squared

KiWiPoP1:

That's 3 multiplied by itself

KiWiPoP1:

3^2 = 3x3

06natrod52378:

OH 9

06natrod52378:

?

KiWiPoP1:

YEP

KiWiPoP1:

but that was an example

06natrod52378:

i frogt it was that

KiWiPoP1:

lol, now, what 's 5^2 and 20^2

06natrod52378:

25, and 400?

KiWiPoP1:

yep good job, now subtract them to find your missing side

06natrod52378:

-375?

KiWiPoP1:

nonono

KiWiPoP1:

I mean reguarly

KiWiPoP1:

greatest- least

06natrod52378:

375

KiWiPoP1:

yep

06natrod52378:

thats the missing thiing?

KiWiPoP1:

No square root it

KiWiPoP1:

*now

06natrod52378:

KiWiPoP1:

not on a graph

KiWiPoP1:

with a regular calculator

06natrod52378:

i didn't graph it.

KiWiPoP1:

oh-

KiWiPoP1:

okok

KiWiPoP1:

what'd you get then

06natrod52378:

19.364916731

KiWiPoP1:

yep, good job, now just round it to the nearest hundredth place

06natrod52378:

19.36?

KiWiPoP1:

Perfect

KiWiPoP1:

Now

KiWiPoP1:

write down what d= cause in this equation, D is our replacement for B

KiWiPoP1:

D^2=?

06natrod52378:

749.6192?

KiWiPoP1:

what? no- how'd you get that?

KiWiPoP1:

You're finding your missing side and 19.36 was that side

06natrod52378:

oh

KiWiPoP1:

so let's wrap it up a^2= 52 c^2= 20 And using it the way I just did, what does B equal?

KiWiPoP1:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @KiWiPoP1 so let's wrap it up a^2= 52 c^2= 20 And using it the way I just did, what does B equal? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) *5^2

KiWiPoP1:

thats not 52 it's 5^2

06natrod52378:

oh

06natrod52378:

19.36^2?

KiWiPoP1:

BOOM, you got it

06natrod52378:

1 attachment
KiWiPoP1:

B^2= 19.36^2

KiWiPoP1:

It's still correct, they're gonna do that with decimal answers

KiWiPoP1:

made sure you add yards at the end too, cause thats what its being measured in

06natrod52378:

Thank you

KiWiPoP1:
