Answer(s):


5√(2) and
7.07

Explanation:

substitute a=5 and b= 5 into Pythagorean Theorem:


a^2+b^2=c^2\\(5)^(2)+ (5)^(2) = c^2

Simplify:


25+25=c^(2)


50=c^(2)

square root of c^2 and 50


√(50) =√(c^2) \\\\√(50) =c

Use prime factorization to reduce
√(50) to
5√(2)

So here are the answers:

Radical form
5√(2)

Rounded to nearest hundredth:
7.07

Hope this answer helps :)

Answer:

A See work below

B 7.07

C
√(50)

Explanation:


a^(2) +
b^(2) =
c^(2)


5^(2) +
5^(2) =
c^(2)

25 + 25 =
c^(2)

50 =
c^(2)


√(50) =
\sqrt{c^(2) }


√(50) = c This is the exact answer.
√(50) is an irrational number. This means that it never terminates or repeats in the decimal form.


√(50) ≈ 7.07 Rounded
