um theres multiple answsers, technically 2 possible answers so you might want to reread the question to find out which side is the hypotnuse. if a= 8 and b=21 then C is greater than 21
\n" ); document.write( "if a=8 b=? c=21 so b would be less tha 21\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "8^2+21^2=c^2
\n" ); document.write( "64+441=c^2
\n" ); document.write( "505=c^2
\n" ); document.write( "22.4722=c\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "second one could be
\n" ); document.write( "8^2+b^2=21^2
\n" ); document.write( "64+b^2=441
\n" ); document.write( "b^2=377
\n" ); document.write( "b=19.4165\r
