Apply Pythagorean theorem:
\n" ); document.write( "Let h = hypotenuse
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "h^2 = 3^2 + 5^2
\n" ); document.write( "h^2 = 9 + 25
\n" ); document.write( "h^2 = 34
\n" ); document.write( "h = \"sqrt%2834%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
