Question
So, I have a question on a project that asks why you get a different answer when measuring the side of a hypotenuse versus using the Pythagorean Theorem. I did get different answers, but I just can't figure out why.

The only reason I can think of is that a measurement is subject to error (and is really only a decimal approximation), whereas the PT results is exact.
