Question

PLEASE HELP 35 POINTS Two sides of a right triangle measure 777 units and 333 units.

Answer 1

Answer:

58 units squared

Step-by-step explanation:

**I'm doing the question with the 7 by 3 triangle in the picture, not 777 by 333**

Pythagorean Theorem: $a^2+b^2=c^2$, where c is the length of the hypotenuse.

The given sides are legs, therefore, $3^2+7^2=c^2$

$9+49=c^2; 58=c^2; c=\sqrt{58}$

c is also one of the sides of the square. A square's area is one of the sides' lengths squared, so:

$(\sqrt{58}) ^{2}=58$
