Answer:
a - (-b), a - (-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
A double negative negative is a positive, so a - (-b) = a + b, and a - (-5) is a + 5. However, a double negative is still a difference, so this answer works.

Let the other leg = x
x^2 + 4^2 = (3x)^2
x^2 + 4^2 = 9x^2
4^2 = 9x^2 - x^2
16= 8x^2
16/8 = x^2
x^2 = 2
x = sqrt(2)
The lengths of the sides
other side =4
hypotenuse = 3*sqrt(2)
x = 1.4
other side= 4
hypotenuse = 3*1.4142
hypotenuse = 4.2
