What happens if the length of the

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{\boxed{\sf~c^2=34}}$

Solution Steps:

______________________________

1.) To find c, you must fill in the formula:

• Formula: $a^2+b^2=c^2$

• $a^2=3^2$

• $b^2=5^2$

 - When finding c, it doesn't matter what you put for a or b. So if you want to make a = 5, and b = 3, it wouldn't make any difference.

2.) Find the powers of a and b:

• $3^2=9$

• $5^2=25$

3.) Add a and b together:

• $9+25=34$

Answer 2

Answer:

c² = 34

Explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

• Insert 3 and 5 into the equation

3² + 5² = c²

• Simplify

3² = 9

5² = 25

9 + 25 = 34

34 = c²
