A 10x10 square can obviously hold 100 unit circles (diameter=1) when arranged in rows and columns. What is the maximum number of non-overlapping unit circles a 10x10 square can hold if the circles are packed closer together?

Hmm, I was confused earlier, but now even more confused. Well, Actually, my doubt was that your initial a²=b²+c² equation was funny or like, I cannot see where you got the right-angled triangle.
Anyway, now I am more confused.
Huh!
