Since hypotenuse is a term that we use to represent the longest side in a right angle triangle ⇒ this is a right angle triangle.
.
Find the other missing leg:
a² + b² = c²
24² + b² = 40²
b² = 40² - 24²
b² = 1200
b = 20√3
The missing leg is 20√3 units long.
.
Find area:
Area = 1/2 x base x height
Area = 1/2 x 20√3 x 24
Area = 240√3 0r 415.69 units²
.
Answer: Area = 240√3 units²
