Explanation:

Calculate hypotenuse for side lengths 36 and 48

Evaluate squaring definition

Squaring a number means multiplying that number by itself, not by 2.

$$ x^2 = x \cdot x eq 2x $$

Therefore, the statement is False.

Calculate hypotenuse for side lengths 33 and 44

Evaluate square root definition

Finding the square root of a number \(y\) means finding a number \(x\) such that \(x \cdot x = y\).
Therefore, the statement is True.
