Answer:

b = √( c² - a² )

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation to find the length of a right angle using pythagorean theoram is,

a ² +  b²  =  c²

According to the question you have find the length of b side.

For that, you have to make b as the subject in this equation.

Let us solve now.

a ² +  b²  =  c²

b²  =  c² - a²

b = √( c² - a² )

Therefore,

3rd Answer is correct.
