Question

For each problem, find the missing value using the Pythagorean Theorem

Answer 1

Answer: $\sqrt{66}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem says that a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the two legs.  

In this care leg 1 is 4 and leg two is the square root of 50. So we will square them to find c which is the hypotenuse.

4^2 + $\sqrt{50} ^2$  = C^2

16 +  50 = c^2

  66 = c^2

    c =$\sqrt{66}$
