Answer:
Pythagorean theorem
h² = b² +p²
ac² = ba² + bc²
(x+15)² = (x+8)² + (x+1)²
x² + 225 + 30x = x² + 64 + 16x + x² + 1 + 2x
x² + 225 + 30x = 2x² + 18x + 65
225-65+ 30x - 18x = 2x² - x²
160 + 12x - x² = 0
x² - 12x -160 = 0
x² - (20x-8x) - 160 = 0
x² - 20x + 8x - 160 = 0
x(x-20) +8(x - 20) = 0
(x-20) (x+8)=0
so x = 20, not -8 because its negative term
sides are
ab = x+8= 20+8 = 28 cm
ab = x+8= 20+8 = 28 cmbc =x+1= 20+1 = 21 cm
ab = x+8= 20+8 = 28 cmbc =x+1= 20+1 = 21 cmac = x+15 =20+15 = 35 cm
