If you are substituting into the formula: a2 + b2=c2 numbers for a, b, and c; what would the order of operations be to solve for one of the variables?
1. Substitute the numbers into the formula: a2 + b2 = c2
2. Rearrange the formula to solve for the variable of interest (a, b, or c)
3. Use the order of operations (parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction) to simplify the equation and isolate the variable
4. Solve for the variable by performing the necessary operations on both sides of the equation.
