Question

the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 3cm more than twice it's base. The third side is 7cm more than its base.
a) If the length of the base is taken x, then what are the length of the hypotenuse and the third side.
b) find the length of all sides of the right angled triangle
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the base be x

hypotenuse of right angled triangle=(2x+3)

third side=(x+7)

x^2+(x+7)^2=(2x+3)^2

therefore x=5,-4

Sides are 5cm,12cm,13cm
