Answer 1

Question:

Found a picture which relates to the question asked. It can be found in the attachment below.

Answer:

b. c2 + b2 = a2

Explanation:

According to Pythagoras rule :

The longest side of the triangle is the hypotenus

The opposite and adjacent sides depends on the particular angle provided or one which is to be calculated.

The opposite side is one drawn across a given angle, while the side next to the Given angle is called the adjacent side.

FROM △ABC ;

THE longest side is 'a' = hypotenus

Opposite side = c

Adjacent = b

From Pythagoras :

(Hypotenus)^2 = (Opposite)^2 + (adjacent)^2

Hence,

a^2 = c^2 + b^2
