Malik Figueroa · Answer 1

Same thing. 22^2+b^2=33^2

484+b^2=1089

b^2=605

b=24.60

Hillary Stark · Answer 2

We'd used the pythagorean theorem for this problem. Since the side length, diagonal, and missing side form a right triangle.

a²+b²=c²

22²+b²=33²

484+b²=1089

subtract 484 from both sides

b²=605

√b²=24.60

b=24.6 feet

Answer=24.6ft
