Equation: c² = n²

1. Take the square root of both sides of the equation and write the resulting equation.

2. Is there any way for this equation to be true? How?

Answer 1

c = ±n

Explanation:

Taking the square root of both sides yields

√c² = √n² or c = ±n

c² = n² is a quadratic equation, so we expect that there will be two roots: one positive and one negative.

Answer 2

1.

c² = n²

√c² = √n²

c = n

2.

if

c = 3 + 6 = 9

and

n = 5 + 4 = 9
