We need Pythagoras theorem here
a^2+b^2 = c^2
a, b = legs of a right-triangle
c = length of hypotenuse
Let S=shorter leg, in cm, then longer leg=S+2 cm
use Pythagoras theorem
S^2+(S+2)^2 = (10 cm)^2
expand (S+2)^2
S^2 + S^2+4S+4 = 100 cm^2 [collect terms and isolate]
2S^2+4S = 100-4 = 96 cm^2
simplify and form standard form of quadratic
S^2+2S-48=0
Solve by factoring
(S+8)(S-6) = 0 means (S+8)=0, S=-8
or (S-6)=0, S=6
Reject nengative root, so
Shorter leg = 6 cm
Longer leg = 6+2 cm = 8 cm
Hypotenuse (given) = 10 cm
The function is y = 1/2 x² - 2 x and the base of the triangle cannot be 3 cm.
let the base of the triangle be x
Height of the triangle = x - 4
Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height
Area = 1/2 × x × (x-4)
Area = 1/2 (x² - 4x)
Area = 1/2 x² - 2 x
We can also write it as a function:
y = 1/2 x² - 2 x
Domain = (3 , ∞)
Range = [0, ∞)
Since 3 is not included in the domain, base of the triangle cannot be 3 cm.
Therefore, the function is y = 1/2 x² - 2 x and the base of the triangle cannot be 3 cm.
