7.92 is less than 8
10.21 is less than 11
8*11=88
the answer is less than 88.
the answer seems to be unreasonable to me it's too high
Start by calling the shortest side

. We then know that the longer leg (call it

) is 7 feet longer i.e.

. We also know that the hypotenuse,

is 1 foot more than twice the short leg i.e.

. We now have 3 unknowns but only 2 equations to solve them. Luckily we know this is a right triangle so we can use the Pythagorean Theorem as our third equation:

Substituting known values:

This is now an equation in one variable and can be solved algebraically for

. Back-substitution can then be used for the other sides.
The hypotenuse is 13.
144 + 25 = 169
Square root of 169 is 13.
128 inches bevy se you have to find the areas of each and then add so it is 48 + 80 =128
