a%5E2+%2B+b%5E2+=+c%5E2
Therefore,
c+=+sqrt%28a%5E2%2Bb%5E2%29 <---Isolated C by taking the square root of both sides sqrt%28c%5E2%29+=+c
sqrt%2810%2A10%2B5%2A5%29+=+c <--- Used the formula above to solve for c by plugging in a and b
sqrt%28100%2B25%29+=+c
sqrt%28125%29+=+c <--- Answer
5%2Asqrt%285%29 <--- Simplified answer
