Answer:
Square Inscribed in Right Triangle - Problem With Solution
The sum of the areas of triangles BEC and BEA is equal to the total area of the right triangle which is (1/2)*40*30 = 600. Let x be the length of the side of the square, hence. Area of BEC = (1/2)*40*x = 20x. ...
We now write an equation using total area and solve for x. 20x + 15x = 600. x = 120 / 7 = 17.1.f
