Question

PLS HELP MEEE I NEED HELP TO PASS PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM

Answer 1

b=12

Explanation:

b^2+35^2=37^2

b^2+1225=1369

b^2=144

b=12,-12

Lengths can't be negative, so b=12

Answer 2

b=12

Explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem is

a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

35^2 + b^2 = 37^2

1225+b^2 =1369

b^2 =1369-1225

b^2 = 144

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(144)

b=12
