: I'm not exactly sure how to apply the formula. Thnk you for your site and any help! This question is from textbook beginning algebra
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The Pythagorean Theorem is for right triangles only! A and B represent the legs or the sides that touch the right angle. c is the longest side and does not touch the right angle. lets say that a=3 and b=4. you need to square both a nad b giving you a=9 and b=16. now you need to add those together and take the square root 16+9=25 the square root of 25 is 5 and that is your answer for c.
