Question

Geometry i need help

Answer 1

Answer:
`√(11)`

Explanation:

Using the Pythagorean theroem we can solve this right triangle. We have 3 sides lets call them "a" "b" and "c"

side "a" will be 5

side "b" is the side we don't know

side "c" will be 6

the formula says that
`a^2+b^2=c^2` so that also means
`5^2+b^2=6^2`

then we can just solve with algebra

`5^2+b^2=6^2`

`25+b^2=36`

`b^2=11`

so take the square root of both sides

b =
`√(11)`

hope that helps ciao
