* c is the hypotenuse
◉ Exponent rule for power raised to a power
(1 base with 2 powers).

top.
◉ Exponent rule for multiplying monomials
(2 of the same base - what do the exponents do?).
Answer: When bases are the same, add exponents
◉ y=mx+b.
Answer: Equation for a line: m= slope and b= y-intercept
