Question

Help with this please. I’d appreciate if you showed the steps and the answer. Thanks!

Answer 1

17^2 because the equation for it is a^2+b^2=c^2 so the longest side (x) is the c so 10 i put as a and 7 i put as b. it will always be squared for pythagorean theorem so the equation will look like 10^2+7^2=17^2 and if it isn’t squared all you have to do is undo the squaring
