In a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle the two smaller sides are =. So when you use 
a^2 + b^2 = c^2, you need a and b both to find the area.

So call both of them = b^2.

Equation and solution
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
b^2 + b^2 = c^2
2b^2 = c^2
c = 24
b = ???

2 b^2 = 24^2
2 b^2 = 576 Divide by 2
b^2 = 288 I'm going to leave this as it is for the moment. You'll see what in a second.

Area of a triangle
Area of a triangle = 1/2 h * b
But the height and base are the 2 smaller equal sides of a 45_45_90 triangle
so h = b
base = b 

Area of a triangle = 1/2 b^2 The equalities above tell you that. h and b of the triangle are equal.

Area = 1/2 288 feet^2
Area = 144 feet^2

Let f(x)=x+8and g(x)=x^2-6x-7. Find f(g(2))
posledela

The answer is a. -7


1. Find g(2).

2. Find f(g(2)).

g(x) = x² - 6x - 7

x = 2 ⇒ g(2) = ?

g(2) = 2² - 6·2 - 7 = 4 - 12 - 7 = -15

2. f(x) = x + 8

g(2) = -15

f(g(2)) = f(-15) = -15 + 8 = -7
