There's this problem that says 45.67 times 32.58
for my answer i got 1487.8886
but when i used the calculator to check my work it said 1487.9286.
i tried to redo it to see if i get 1487.9286 but i still got 1487.8886
what mistake did i make?

To solve this problem, we must use the pythagorean theorem. 12 is the hypotenuse or c and 5 is b.

a^2 + (5)^2 = (12)^2. Square the appropriate numbers.

a^2 + 25 = 144. Subtract 25 from each side.

a^2 = 119. Take the square root of each side.

a = √(119). This is only half the value of x. Multiply √(119) by 2

Your answer should be 21.8
