Answer:

Explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem is incredibly useful. It states that
a^(2) +b^(2) =c^(2)(Refer to the image labeled diagram 1). C is the hypotenuse of the triangle, or the longest side. It is always opposite of the right angle in the triangle. a and b are the other two sides, in no specific order. I attached 2 examples.

Hope it helps <3
