We know that
A right isosceles triangle <span> has two equal sides and two equal angles
so 
has two angles equals to 45</span>°

<span>methodology 1 to solve the problem
</span>Let 
x--------> length of the leg of triangle
sin 45°=opposite side/hypotenuse
sin 45°=√2/2
opposite side=hypotenuse*sin 45°------> 31*√2/2---> 21.92 units


methodology 2 to solve the problem
c²=a²+b²
c=hypotenuse------> 31 units
a=leg 1
b=leg 2
a=b
so
c²=2a²------> a²=c²/2------> a²=(31)²/2
a=√[(31)²/2]------> a=31/√2-----> 31√2/2------> 21.92 units

A square purple rug has a orange square in the center. The side length of the orange square is x inches. The width of the purple
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

578 + 48 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the area of the purple band is as follows:

Area of the green square = side^2 = x^ square inches

And, the area of the orange square = side^2

The side would be = = 12 + 12 +x  = 24 + x

And, now the area would be = (x + 24)^2

Now the area of the orange band is

= Area of the orange square  area of the green square

= (x + 24)^2 - x^2

= x^2 + 24^2 + 48  - x^2

= 578 + 48 square inches
