Sergeu [11.5K]

The equation can be used to find the missing leg in the triangle 20^{2} = 16^{2} +a^{2}.

<h3>What is the right triangle?</h3>

A right-angle triangle is a triangle that has a side opposite to the right angle the largest side and is referred to as the hypotenuse.

It is given that a right triangle has a side length of 16 meters and a hypotenuse of 20 meters.

From a Pythagoras theorem

b^{2} = c^{2} +a^{2} \\20^{2} = 16^{2} +a^{2}\\20^{2}-16^{2} =a^{2}\\a^{2} = 20^{2}-16^{2} \\

Thus, the equation can be used to find the missing leg in the triangle 20^{2}-16^{2} =a^{2}.
