Answer: b=\sqrt{c^{2}-a^{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the exercise you must solve for b from the formula for the hypotenuse, as you can see below:

- Square both sides of the equation as following:

c^{2}=(\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}})^{2}

- Now you must subtract a² from each side of the equation, then you obtain:

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

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

- Apply square root to both sides:

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

Then:

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

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

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

Square both sides

c² = a² + b² ( subtract a² from both sides )

c² - a² = b² ( take the square root of both sides )

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

⇒ b = \sqrt{c^2-a^2}

Please please help me out..........
Tema [17]

Answer:

For the parallelogram to be a rectangle, at least one angle must be a right angle or a 90° angle, we know that:

    13x + 34° + 10x + 10° = 90°

=> 13x + 10x                   = 90° - 34° - 10°

=> 23x                            = 46°

=> x                                 = 46°/23 = 2°
