Answer:

1.62

Step-by-step explanation:

smaller number: y

x - y = 1        x = y+1

xy = 1

(y + 1) * y = 1

y² + y - 1 = 0

y = (-1 ± √(1² - 4 * 1 * -1)) / 2 = (-1 ± √5) / 2

small number: (-1 - √5) / 2 = - 1.62

Answer:

= 150 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a right triangle is given by the formula;

1/2 bh ; where b is base and h is the height of the triangle

using Pythagoras  theorem, we can find the height;

h² = 20² - 16²

h = √144

  = 12 units

The base of the small triangle can also be found using Pythagoras theorem;

b² = 15² - 12²

b  = √ 81

   = 9

Therefore;

Area = 1/2 bh

        = 1/2 × 12 × (16+9)

        = 1/2 × 12 × 25

        = 6 × 25

        = 150 square units or 150 u²
