ade and Tyce both tried to find the missing side of the right triangle. A right triangle is shown. The legs are labeled 6 and 9. A right angle is labeled in between them. Cade's Work Tyce's Work a2 + b2 = c2 a2 + b2 = c2 62 + b2 = 92 62 + 92 = c2 36 + b2 = 81 36 + 81 = c2 b2 = 45 117 = c2 Square root b squared equals square root 45. Square root 117 equals c squared. b ≈ 6.71 10.82 ≈ c Is either of them correct? Explain your reasoning. (5 points) Your answer:

Answer: both are correct.

given : a right triangle

prove : if both the answers are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a right triangle pythagoras theorem comes into use.

A^2 + B^2 = c^2

Step 1:

Where A, B and C are the three sides of a right angled triangle.

A is the opposite side

B is the adjacent side

C is the hypotenuse which is the longest side.

Step 2:

Given the two sides, C is unknown

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

6^2 + 9^2 = C^2

36 + 81 = C^2

C^2 = 117

C = √117 = 10.82

Step 2:

Since B is unknown

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

6^2 + B^2 = 9^2

B^2 = 9^2 - 6^2

B^2 = 81 - 36

B^2 = 45

B = √45 = 6.71

Conclusion: both are correct.
