Question 565306: using pythagorean theorem:
how do i solve using a square root as one of the sides?
for example: a^2=26 b^2=(square root 596) c^2=?
Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the square root of 596 squared is equal to 596.
the square root of anything squared is anything.
example:
the square root of 4^2 = 4
the square root of 6^2 = 6
you can prove this for yourself by squaring 4 and squaring 6
you get 16 and 36
square root of 16 = 4
square root of 36 = 6
in your problem you want to take the square root of 596^2.
that equals 596.
if you use your calculator and square 596 you'll get 355216
if you use your calculator and take the square root of 355216 you'll get 596.
