Question

Hi. I need help with this, write an equation you could use to find the length of the missing side of each right triangle. Then find the missing length. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answer 1

Answer:

8^2 + b^2 = 10^2, and b = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle, so use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where 8 is a, b is b, and 10 is c

8^2 + b^2 = 10^2

64 + b^2 = 100

100 - 64 = 36

b^2 = 36

b = 6

Answer 2

Equation: A^2(squared)+B^2=C^2
