The Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse by the formula a2 + b2 = c2.

If a is a rational number and b is a rational number, why could c be an irrational number?

O The square of rational numbers is irrational, and sum of two irrational numbers is irrational.

O The product of two rational numbers is rational, and the sum of two rational numbers is irrational.

O The left side of the equation will result in a rational number, which is a perfect square.

O The left side of the equation will result in a rational number, which could be a non-perfect square.

Abucket of paint has spilled on a tile floor. the paint flow can be expressed with the function p(t) = 6(t), where t represents time in minutes and p represents how far the paint is spreading. the flowing paint is creating a circular pattern on the tile. the area of the pattern can be expressed as a(p) = 3.14(p)^2 part a: find the area of the circle of spilled paint as a function of time, or a[p(t)]. show your work. part b: how large is the area of spilled paint after 8 minutes? you may use 3.14 to approximate pi in this problem.
