Question 413821: I know how to do a problem that has the hypotenuse (C) with the measure, but on the problem i have now it gave me side A and side B and didn't give me the C, so how do I set up this equation? cause normally it would be c2 = a2 + b2 ...but i don't have C Answer by bayners123(12) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! I think you mean that you have a right angled triangle and know the 2 sides that are not the hypotenuse?
If this is right then you do use c2 = a2 + b2
square a and b, add them together, and then square root to find c and you will be sorted!
