Question

What do you do to solve for c? This is a congruent triangle. If so, what’s the answer?

Answer 1

c = 3

Explanation:

Since it's a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem given that you have two side values to find the missing side value.

a² + b² = c²

4² + b² = 5²

16 + b² = 25

√b² = √9

b = 3
