Hypotenuse = h
leg1 = h-8
leg2 = h-1

h² -(h-8)² = (h-1)²

h² - [h² -16h +64] = h² -2h +1
16h -64 = h² -2h +1
h² -18h + 65 = 0

hypotenuse = 13
leg1 = 13-8 = 5
leg2 = 13-1 =12

Perimeter = 13 + 5 + 12 = 30

<u>Answer:</u>

<h2>A = 15 u²</h2>

<u>Explanation:</u>

according to the coordinates the triangles is right at the pair (2, -3)

the area of the triangle = height × base × 1/2

the <u>height</u> is the line passing through the pairs (-1, 6) and (2, -3)

h² = (2-(-1))²+(-3-6)²

h² = 3² + (-9)²

h² = 9 + 81

h² = 90

h = √90

the <u>base</u> is the line passing through the pairs (5, -2) and (2, -3)

b² = (2-5)²+(-3-(-2))²

b² = 3² + (-3+2)²

b² = 9 + 1

b² = 10

b = √10

A = h×b×1/2

A = √90×√10×1/2

A = √900×1/2

A = 30×1/2

A = 15 u²
