Question

In the triangle below AC =____________ cm.

Answer 1

AC = 5 cm

Explanation:

STEP 1: Find the last side of the triangle using the Pythagorean theorem.

`a^2+b^2=c^2`

STEP 2: Solve the equation for c.

`c=√(b^2+a^2)`

STEP 3: Substitute the actual values into the equation.

`c=√(3^2+4^2)`

STEP 4: Raise 3 to the power of 2.

`c=√(9+4^2)`

STEP 5: Raise 4 to the power of 2.

`c=√(9+16)`

STEP 6: Add 9 and 16.

`c=√(25)`

STEP 7: Solve for
`√(25)`.

`c=5 cm`

Answer 2

25

Explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

9+16=25cm
