Question

right triangle has hypotenuse of length p cm and one side of length q cm. If p-q=1,then what will be the length of the third side of the right triangle in terms of p *​

Answer 1

Answer:

third side =√2p-1

Step-by-step explanation:

given:. a right triangle

hypotenuse=p cm and one side = q cm

and, p-q=1

to find: the third side triangle in term of p

solution: p-q=1

p-1=q

and,. let the third side be x

by Pythagoras theorem

p²=q²+x²

x=√p²-q²

x=√p²-(p-1)²

x=√p²-p²-1+2

x=√2p-1
