What letter represents the hypotenuse?

• a

• b

• a and b

• c

Hypotenuse

• Vertical side in a right triangle

• Longest side in a right triangle

• Horizontal side in a right triangle

• a² + b² = c²

Which choice represents the legs?

• a and b

• a

• b

• c

What is the final step in solving this work for c?
a² + b² = c²
3² + 4² = c²
9 + 16 = c²
25 = c²

• Divide both sides by 2
• Take the square root of both sides

The Pythagorean Theorem is

a² - b² = c²

• false

• true
