To find the hypotenuse of a right triangle, you must use a^2 + b^2 = c^2
* keep in mind the hypotenuse MUST be larger than the legs.
The Pythagorean Theorem comes from making 2 squares from the lengths of each leg (that is why it is a^2 and b^2). The hypotenuse must be equal to the area of the two squares created.
The reason fractions need a common denominator before adding or subtracting is so that the numbers of pieces you are adding/subtracting are all the same size. Note that the numerator of a fraction just tells you how many pieces you have of that size.

Answer:
y = -16.9
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>→Add 0.8y to both sides:</u>
-0.8y + 5.49 = -19.86 - 2.3y
5.49 = -19.86 - 1.5y
<u>→Add 19.86 to both sides:</u>
25.35 = -1.5y
<u>→Divide both sides by -1.5:</u>
-16.9 = y
