Answer:

The second one

Step-by-step explanation:

It's the Pythagoras theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a and b are the two sides of the right triangle that are near the right angle. (legs)

c is the side opposite to the right angle. (the hypotenuse)

^2 is squared (to the power of 2).

Answer:
The sum of the areas of square N and L are equal to the sum of the areas in square K.

Step-by-step explanation:
The longest side of a right triangle is called the hypotenuse, and the other two sides are called the legs.

Pythagoras states that if a=the length of one leg, b=the length of the other leg and c=the length of the hypotenuse, then a^2+b^2=c^2. This is the Pythagorean theorem.

Because the formula for the area of a square is its length squared, the Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the areas of the squares created by the legs is equal to the area of the square created by the hypotenuse. Therefore, the sum of the areas of square N and square L is equal to the area of square K.

I hope this helps!
