If side a has a length of 3 and side b has a length of 4, use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of side c. Round the answer to the nearest tenth.
This the equation you will need to use (the Pythagorean Theorem) [tex]a {}^{2} + b {}^{2} = c[/tex] when you put the numbers in for the variables given it will look like this
[tex]( {3})^{2} + ( {4})^{2} = c[/tex] 3 squared equals 9 and 4 squared equals 16: [tex]9 + 16 = 25[/tex] so side c is 25 units
