Answer:

85 units^2 = Area of Blue Square

and

x = 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we use the Pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2). a and b represent the legs of the triangle whereas c represents the longest side of the triangle, or the hypotenuse.

Since we know the area of a square is the side length multiplied by itself (or the side length squared), \sqrt{35} is the side length of the pink square and \sqrt{50} is the side length of the green square.

That means a = \sqrt{35} and b = \sqrt{50} , so...

(\sqrt{35} )^{2} + (\sqrt{50})^{2}  = c^{2}

35 + 50 = c^2

85 = c^2

\sqrt{85} = c

Now we need to square the square root of 85 to find the area of the blue square.

(\sqrt{85})^{2}  = Area of blue square

85 units^2 = Area of Blue Square

To solve the other question we use the same formula again.

x^2 + 12^2 = 13^2\\x^2 +144 = 169\\-144\\x^2 =  25\\x=\sqrt{25} \\x=5

x = 5 units
