escribedupon the hypotenuse A C is equal to the sum of thesquares described upon the p sides A B and B C; conse-quently, if the lengths of thesides A B and B C are known,the length of the hypotenusecan be found by adding thesquares of the lengths of thesides A B and B C and thenextracting the… … 51. If the hypotenuse and one side are given, the otherside can be found by subtracting the square of the given sidefrom the square of the hypotenuse, and then extracting thesquare root of the remainder.
