Math homework help!?!?!?!?

A squared plus B squared= C squared

I don't know how to do the little 2 but I hope you knw what I mean

In a triangle with one 90º angle, the sides that make the 90º angle may be called A & B

The opossite side is H = hipotenusse

Pythagorean theorem stablish that A^2 + B^2 = H^2

In many cases, when you want to draw a right angle (90º) you use a rope or a string whith sides 3, 4 and 5

3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2

9 + 16 = 25

thats easy lol the theorm states A^2 + B^2 = C^2 where a and b are the sides of a triangle and c is the hypotuneuse (side across from the right angle) this can only be used by right triangles by the way. just plug in ur numbers and solve for the unknown

In a right triangle, c^2 = a^2 + b^2 , where c represents the length of the hypotenuse (the longest side of the triangle which is opposite the right (angle), and a and b represent the lengths of the other two, shorter sides of the triangle.

For example: lets say a=2, b=4, c=?

you have to try to find c

c^2=a^2+b^2

c^2=2^2+4^2

c^2=4+2

c^2=8

square root 8 is about 2.8

c=2.8

Another example: lets say c=25, b=15, a=?

you have to try to find a

c^2=a^2+b^2

25^2=a^2+15^2

625=a^2+225

625-225=400

square root 400 is 20

a=20

Notice how when finding the number for a and b is different from finding c.

Pythagorean theorm is A² + B² = C²

In every right triangle it is true that a leg squared + the other leg squared is equal to the hypotenuse (longest side) squared. It is usually remembered by the equation a^2 + b^2 = c^2 and is used to find a missing side of a right triangle.

Hope this helps.

if you have a right angle triangle there will be two sides that make up the 90 degree angle, these sides are usually referred to as A and B, the hypotenuse (the long side opposite the 90 degree angle) is known as C. Using the equation A^2 + B^2 =C^2 you can find the length of one side if you know the length of the other two.

it's the way to find the area of a triangle... i believe the formula is: a square + b squared = c squared, the base of the triangle would be 'c', the longest side would be "b" and the last side would be "a", well that SHOULD be how the sides are labeled.... dont worry, i hate the pythagorean theorem too ^^ srry if it's not that accurate..... i haven't used this formula in a while....

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a^2+b^2=c^2

in a right triangle, the two sides goin off of the right angle are the legs

-the legs are a and b

The other side is called the hypotenuse

-this one is c

--ex:legs are 2 and 3

2^2+3^2= 13(4 and 9) so the answer is the sqare root of 13(3.6)

note:a^2="a sqared" or "a to the two power"
