\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( "a right triangle -> so, use Pythagorean theorem \"c%5E2=a%5E2%2Bb%5E2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "let the first dimension be \"a\", the second dimension be \"b\", and the third dimension be \"c\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if the first dimension measures \"a=6cm\" and the second dimension measures \"b=8cm\", then the third dimension will be \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"c%5E2=%286cm%29%5E2%2B%288cm%29%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"c%5E2=36cm%5E2%2B64cm%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"c%5E2=100cm%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"c=sqrt%28100cm%5E2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"c=10cm\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, the last dimension measures \"10cm\"\r
