This one works out well, because you can find a generalization by applying the theorem with a, b, and c plugged in and you get that c=½(b+a)

This cleared up a ton of confusion way better than asking my teacher.

I tried solving this with the quadratic formula and arrived at the two results: 3-(2)^(1/2) and 3-2^(1/2). Did I just make a mistake calculating or is it not allowed to use the quadratic formula here?

why didn't he solve for C ?
Can someone clear this to me please.. Isn't it supposed to be that 3.5=2C-6 and solve for C? Why didn't he do this step?
