Answer: the rules are

+(+) Two like signs become a positive sign

−(−) 6−(−3) = 6 + 3 = 9

+(−) Two unlike signs become a negative sign

−(+)

Step-by-step explanation:

Example:  3+(+2) = 3 + 2 = 5, 6−(−3) = 6 + 3 = 9, 7+(−2) = 7 − 2 = 5,8−(+2) = 8 − 2 = 6  hope this helps you :)

The Pythagorean theorem is a² + b² = c². Solve for b. b=±c+a−−−−√ b=±c2−a2−−−−−−√ b=±c2+a2−−−−−−√ b=±c−a−−−−√
uysha [10]

a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}

As we have to solve for b, it means we have to isolate b

So first of all subtract a^{2} from both sides

So we get

b^{2} =c^{2} -a^{2}

Now we need b , but its b^2 , so we can take square root on both sides.


taking square roots on both sides

b= +- \sqrt{c^2 -a^2}


Hence option B is correct
