Looking for one leg of right triangle

 pythg theorem   hypotenuse^2 = leg1 ^2 + leg2 ^2

                                  9^2 = 5^2 + leg2 ^2

                                 legg 2 = sqrt (9^2 - 5^2) = sqrt 56  =   2 sqrt 14

Ahhh, you beat me to it! Also, for the guest, use a calculator to round to nearest 10th :P
