The addition property of equality. It says that if you add the same number to each side of the equation, the two sides of the equation will be equal. In this case, the number 8 was added to each side.
Hope this helps :)
it is neither, it cannot be raised to a power unless it is 0 or 1 :)

Answer:
Let the sides be a and b
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 = 29^2 = 841
a^2 + (a + 1)^2 = 841
a^2 + a^2 + 2 a + 1 = 841
2 a^2 + 2 a = 840
a (a + 1) = 420
21 * 20 = 420 trial and error
So the sides are 20 and 21
20^2 + 21^2 = 29^2
