Help me please i need this urgent

In pythagoras's theorem, generally a is the shortest side, b is the second shortest and c is the hypotenuse: 
. However, there is a problem. The questions aren't actually possible without using sine, cosine, and tangent (which are mathematical ratios if you didn't know). I can help you with this but it will take time explaining.

We need to use that first sentence to get the length in terms of the width because you can't have more than 1 unknown in a single equation without running into impossible problems. Putting those words into a usable, viable equation, gives us L = 2w - 1. That's the length that is 1 less than twice the width. The width is just w. Area then requires that we multiply the length and the width together. We have an area of 28, so here's what that looks like: 
. Distribute the right side to get 
. Now, set the equation equal to 0 and bring the 28 over to the other side by subtraction so we can factor the polynomial. 
. Factor that best by putting those values into the quadratic formula to get that w = 4 and w = -3.5. We know, however, that the 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length, so -3.5 is out. That means that the width is 4. The length equation, remember, is L = 2w-1, so L=2(4)-1 which is 8-1 = 7. The width is 4 and the length is 7.
