Question

PLS HELP MEE

1st equation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
2nd equation: a^2 + b^2 = n^2

Since the equations for both triangles have a^2 + b^2, you can think of the two equations for c^2 and n^2 as a system of equations. Substitute what a^2 + b^2 equals in the first equation for a^2 + b^2 in the second equation. After you substitute, what equation do
you get?

Answer 1

c² = n²

Explanation:

Given the 2 equations

a² + b² = c² → (1)

a² + b² = n² → (2)

Substitute a² + b² = c² into (2)

c² = n²
