Suppose a triangle has sides a, b,and c and that a^2 + b^2

a^2+b^2=c^2

Step-by-step explanation:

a, b, c each represent a side. Lets say a triangle has a=2 and b=4.

b^2= 4^2= 4*4= 16

    2. a^2+ b^2= 4+16= 20= c^2

step-by-step explanation:

first, eliminate the parenthesis:

3

x

+

2

−

4

x

second, group like terms:

3

x

−

4

x

+

2

third, combine like terms:

(

3

−

4

)

x

+

2

→

−

1

x

+

2

→

−

x

+

2

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents
