Right Triangles and the Pythagorean Theorem
The Pythagorean Theorem, a2+b2=c2, a 2 + b 2 = c 2 , can be used to find the length of any side of a right triangle.
The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse (side c in the figure).

Answer:
32 feet of fence
Step-by-step explanation:
The garden is a square, so the length and width are equal.
A = L x W
W = L
A = W²
A = 64
W² = 64
W = √64 = ±8 -- (-8) would be extraneous
W = 8 ft
L = 8ft
Since she is putting the fence around the garden, she needs to find the perimeter.
P = 2L + 2W
P = 2(8) + 2(8)
P = 16 + 16
P = 32 ft
32 feet of fence
Answer:
256 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
area = b x h
16 x 16 = <em>256</em>
both combined would be <em>512</em>
Answer:
- 2 5/6 = A
Step-by-step explanation:
- 3 2/3 + 5/6 = A
