Let the other two sides be 4x and 3x

According to Pythagoras theorem

hypotenuse sq=sum of sq of other two sides

20 sq = (4x)sq + (3x) sq

400 = 16x sq + 9x sq

400 = 25 x sq

x sq = 400/25

x = root over 400/25

x = 20/5

x = 5

Therefore other sides 4x=4*5=20 and

3x=3*5=15


Thanusri: x =4 and the sides are 4*4=16,3*4=12
