Question

How do you do the Pythagorean Theorem? Also how do you do it with one leg and hypotenuse? Also how do you do it with 2 legs and no hypotenuse?

Answer 1

Pythagorean Theorem = a^2 + b^2= c^2

Explanation:

(3)^2+ (4)^2 = C

3^2= 9

4^2= 16

9+16=25

(2 legs no hypotenuse)

9^2+ b^2=7^2

9^2 = 81

7^2= 49

81-49= 32

(you have to sqaure root it because the oppsite of sqaured is sqaured root)

32 squared = 5.657

and rounded is 5.7
