is continuous over its domain, all real

.
Meanwhile,

is defined for real

.
If

, then we have

as the domain of

.
We know that if

and

are continuous functions, then so is the composite function

.
Both

and

are continuous on their domains (excluding the endpoints in the case of

), which means

is continuous over

.
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras' theorem for the smallest one :


= 52
Pythagoras' theorem for the middle one :
=
+ 
Pythagoras' theorem for the biggest one :


Using the formula before (for
) it becomes :



16 + 8a = 52 + 36
16+8a = 88
8a = 88-16
8a = 72
a = 9
Verifying :



= 117
The biggest one :



True
