Question

Area of a right triangle is 24 cm2 and the square of sum of the perpendicular sides is 196. Taking the perpendicular sides as x metres and y metres,

a, What the number is x+y?
b, Find the number x-y?
c, Find the length of sides of the triangle?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

area of triangle=24=1/2xy

xy=48

(x+y)^2=196

x+y=14

(x-y)^2=(x+y)^2-4xy

(x-y)^2=196-192

(x-y)^2=4

x-y=2

x+y=14

x-y=2

x=8,length of sides

y=6, length of sides
