For this problem, you would use <em>Pythagorean Theorem </em>or a^2+b^2=c^2. Don't forget that the c in the formula is always your hypotenuse or the longest side of the triangle. The a and the b are always the legs of the triangle. (It doesn't matter which leg is which letter) The hypotenuse is also always across from the 90 degree angle. <u>Picture the 90 degree angle as an arrow pointing to the hypotenuse.</u> In this case, the hypotenuse (or c) is 20.7 cm. Now all you have to do is plug and chug! I hope this helps you and thanks for asking your question!!
The least whole number with 5 digits is greater. The greatest number with 4 digits is 9999, and the least whole number with 5 digits is 10000. 9999 < 10000.
