Question

he hypotenuse of right triangle is 20m. if the difference between the length of the other sides is 4 m. find the other sides

Answer 1

let the other sides be x and y.

then

x²+y²=20²,

x²+y²=400, .......eq(1),


also

x-y=4,........eq(2),

using these two equastion we get

x=16 m,

y=12 m
