Question

lets make this equation easier to work with. start by finding the value of the left side of the equation. what is the sum of $5^2$ and $6^2$? you can solve on paper, then enter your answer on zearn.
there is a right triangle with base 5 cm, height 6 cm, hypotenuse 7 cm. and the equation $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$ is shown, with $5^2 + 6^2 \stackrel{?}{=} 7^2$ and a square box (to fill the sum of $5^2$ and $6^2$) $\stackrel{?}{=} 7^2$.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate \(5^2\)

\(5^2 = 5\times5 = 25\)

Step2: Calculate \(6^2\)

\(6^2 = 6\times6 = 36\)

Step3: Sum the results

\(25 + 36 = 61\)

Answer:

61
