The Pythagorean theorem states that a² + b² = c² for a right triangle with leg lengths, a and b, and hypotenuse length, c.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 5 units long and has the points (3, 0) and (0, 4) as end points. One of the legs has length 3.

Use the Point and Segment tools to draw a right triangle at demonstrates the other leg length is 4.

Answer:

Explanation:

Draw the third point at (0, 0). This would make the distance from (3,0) to (0,0) equal to 3, and the distance from (0,4) to (0,0) be 4.
