1) Write down the equation for the theorem. 2) Replace the sides you know. 3) Solve the resulting equation for the third side.
You use the law of Pythagoras: a2 + b2 = c2, where a and be are the sides adjacent to the right angle, and c is the side opposite. Replace the two sides that you know, and solve for the third one. Pythagoras: hypotenuse squared = sum of squares of other two sides. If you know two of the sides you can calculate the third as above.
20. Because 3x2= 6 and 6+14= 20. duh!!! I know I am a genius!!! --Alternate solution (if the other answer did not answer the right question)-- I think the question can be represented by the equation 14 + 3n = 2, where n= some number that you are trying to solve for. To solve this problem is simple algebraic manipulation. Subtract 14 from both sides to get 3n= -12. Then, divide both sides by 3. The answer is n= -4. So, the missing number was -4.
5x = 25Divide both sides by 5:x = 5

Use the fact that the ratios of corresponding sides is the same, and also that corresponding angles have the same measure.
Any two corresponding sides in two similar figures have a common ratio called the scale factor. Since the figures are similar, the ratios of the lengths of corresponding sides of the figures are equal. 1. Match a side of both figures, 2. write the proportions 3. substitute the values 4. Write the cross product 5. Divide both sides by a common factor 6. simplify 7. Convert improper fraction into mixed number
Form an equation and solve it
The answer depends on what the problem is: are you required to find the lengths of the missing sides, the area, angles, length of diagonal, or WHAT!

Calculus.
You can solve the shape puzzle in Ao Oni by finding the missing die. The missing die is in the second floor of the old building.
You use the Pythagorean Theorem: a2 + b2 = c2. Variables a and b are the shorter sides; c is the hypotenuse. Just plug the values for the sides into the Pythagorean Theorem and solve for the missing side.
1) Write down the equation for the theorem. 2) Replace the sides you know. 3) Solve the resulting equation for the third side.
First, get the radical by itself. Then, square both sides of the equation. Then just solve the rest.
