Which of the following options represents an equation that can be used to solve for the missing side of a right triangle? Select ALL that apply.

A. a^2 + b^2 = c
B. b^2 - c^2 = a^2
C. c^2 = a^2 = b^2
D. c = a + b

Respuesta :

I think you might have made a mistake in your answers. If we use Pythagorean Theorem of a^2 + b^2 = c^2, we can manipulate this to also be...
c^2 - a^2 = b^2 or
c^2 - b^2 = a^2

be sure you copied your answers correctly when comparing with the above answer.

Answer:

1.) a^2+b^2=c^2

2.) c=√a^2+b^2
