00:01 All right, here on this problem, we want to find the length of the other side of triangle.
00:03 If a is 14 and c is 21.
00:07 From pythagorean theorem, we know that a squared plus b squared is equals c squared.
00:14 So 14 squared plus b squared is 21 squared.
00:22 And so this is 196 plus b squared is 441.
00:32 So attract 196...
