Which equation could be used to find the length of the hypotenuse? Triangle A B C. Side A C is 5 centimeters and side C B is 8 centimeters. Hypotenuse A B is labeled c. 5 squared + 8 squared = c squared 5 squared + c squared = 8 squared c squared minus 5 squared = 8 squared 8 squared minus 5 squared = c squared

i think it is 18

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!

the correct answer is the last option
