To solve for one of the variables in the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2, the order of operations would be as follows:
1. Square both a and b.
2. Add the squares of a and b together.
3. Take the square root of the sum of a^2 and b^2 to find the value of c.
In this formula, the order of operations is important in order to correctly solve for one of the variables.
If you are substituting into the formula: a^2 + b^2=c^2 numbers for a, b, and c; what would the order of operations be to solve for one of the variables?
