Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem requires the use of the Pythagorean Theorem to find the lengths of the sides of a piece of property in the shape of a right triangle

Example:

Taylor finds a piece of property in the shape of a right triangle. She finds that the longer leg is 10 m shorter than twice the length of the shorter leg and the hypotenuse is 20 m longer than the longer leg. Find the lengths of the sides of the triangular lot.
