Let x = legs of right triangle.
The set up would be:
x^2 + x^2 = (hypotenuse)^2

Answers:
Answer for row one: 1
Answer for row two: 11
Answer for row three: 16
Answer for row four: 36
=========================================
Work Shown:
Whatever the x value is, we multiply by 5 and subtract off 14 to get the corresponding y value. This is following the order of operations PEMDAS
------------
If x = 3, then
y = 5*x - 14
y = 5*3 - 14 ..... note how x is replaced with 3
y = 15 - 14
y = 1
This means that when x = 3, the y value is y = 1.
So 1 goes in the box in the first row.
---------------
Repeat for x = 5
y = 5*x - 14
y = 5*5 - 14
y = 25 - 14
y = 11
We have 11 as the second answer.
--------------
Repeat for x = 6
y = 5*x - 14
y = 5*6 - 14
y = 30 - 14
y = 16
The third answer is 16.
--------------
Repeat for x = 10
y = 5*x - 14
y = 5*10 - 14
y = 50 - 14
y = 36
The last answer is 36.
