[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is one leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is hypotenuse

Explanation:

Step 1: Identify Variables

a = 19

b = x

c = 21

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Substitute [PT]: 19² + x² = 21²
  2. Isolate x term: x² = 21² - 19²
  3. Exponents: x² = 441 - 361
  4. Subtract: x² = 80
  5. Isolate x: x = √80
  6. Simplify: x = 4√5
