Finding a missing dimension of a triangle

[Copyright]

Well this my be easy to figure out but wanted to make sure I did it right.

So. what is the missing length of a right triangle if the oppisite is 41 and the Hypotenuse is 50.

What did you get when you plugged these two values into the Pythagorean Theorem?

Please show all of your work. Thank you!

Any time some one says "I have done this problem but I want to know the correct answer to check it", everyone here is going to think he/she does not have any answer at all and is trying to "trick" us into giving the answer. Of course, you are not doing that because you know better than to insult the intelligence of people here but it would look a lot better to say "I have done this problem and got this answer. Please check it for me"!

It will be also good to show the steps you followed to get the answer - specially when it is wrong.

Otherwise, most of will answer correct or incorrect.
