102+52=c2
; c = 125 m, which is a rational, whole number
10 squared plus 5 squared is equal to c squared ; c = 125 m, which is a rational, whole number
52+x2=102
; x = √75 m, which is an irrational number and would be estimated to be 8.7 m.
5 squared plus x squared is equal to 10 squared ; x = √75 m, which is an irrational number and would be estimated to be 8.7 m.
102−−−√+52=c2
; c = √125, which is an irrational number and must be estimated at 11.2 m.
square root of 10 squared end root plus 5 squared is equal to c squared ; c = √125, which is an irrational number and must be estimated at 11.2 m.
52+x2=102
; x = 75 m, which is a rational, whole number
