Question 642338: Using the Pythagorean Theorem, find the missing side for these right triangles.
If the answer is not a perfect square, leave it in radical form.
Here's the problem:
C = 5
B = 4
A = (blank space and has a radical sign over it)
Thank's so much for your help!!!

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, find the missing side for these right triangles.
If the answer is not a perfect square, leave it in radical form.
Here's the problem:
C = 5
B = 4
A = (blank space and has a radical sign over it)
-------
A = sqrt[5^2-4^2]
A = sqrt[9]
