what is the pythagorean theorem?
\\(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\)
\\(a + b = c^2\\)
none of the above
\\(c^2 + b^2 = a^2\\)
\\(\sqrt{a^2 + b^2} = c^2\\)

Explanation:

Evaluate the order of operations statement

$$ \text{Innermost grouping symbols (parentheses or brackets) are always evaluated first.} \implies \text{True} $$

Calculate the exponential value

$$ 8^4 = 8 \times 8 \times 8 \times 8 = 64 \times 64 = 4096 $$

Solve for the missing leg of the right triangle

Question 18

• \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\) (Correct answer)
• \(a + b = c^2\)
• None of the above
• \(c^2 + b^2 = a^2\)
• \(\sqrt{a^2 + b^2} = c^2\)
