The Pythagorean Theorem is used to find a missing side of a Right triangle when given the other two sides.

$a^2 + b^2 = c^2$

a = Side 1

b = Side 2

c = hypotenuse ( longest side )

The Pythagorean Theorem states that a triangle's hypotenuse is equal to the square's of the other two sides of the triangle.

a² + b² = c²
a = side of triangle
b = other side of triangle
c = hypotenuse (squared)

Find the square root to find the accurate length of the hypotenuse.

LaDanian wants to write the fraction 4 / 6 as a sum of unit fractions. what expression should he write

julsineya [31]

He wants to write the fraction 4 / 6 as a sum of unit fractions. It is written as follows:

1/6 +1/6 +1/6+ 1/6= 4/6.

A unit fraction has a numerator of 1 so since 4 is the numerator in 4/6 you would have to add 1/6 for four times.

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
