Answer:

2

Explanation:

the theorum you need for this is c^2 = a^2 + b^2, but because you have sides a and c, you need to work backwards.

Start by isolating b^2 in the equation.

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

-a^2

c^2 - a^2 = b^2

b needs to not be squared, so take the square root of both sides


b = \sqrt{√(29)^(2) - 5^(2)

Your answer should be 2.
