For a right triangle with legs legnth a and b and hypotnuse (longes side) legnth c
a²+b²=c²

depends which one is the hyppotonuse
if we assume that bc is the hypotnuse, then
7²+b²=10²
49+b²=100
minus 49
b²=51
sqrt both sides
the missing side is √51


if we assume that the hypotonuse is ab then
7²+10²=c²
49+100=c²
149=c²
sqrt both sides
√149=c


if bc is the hypotonuse, then ab is √51
if ab is the hypotonuse, then ab is √149

A. After the mod. One wall is “x” longer than original (horizontal in diagram) and the other is “x” shorter (vertical)
(30+x)(30-x)

b. He original area = 30 x 30 = 900 sq. ft.
The mod. Area is (30+6)(30-6) = 36x24= 764 sq. ft.

So the room was largest to begin with when it was a square
