Answer:

The leg is 8 cm long

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles right triangle has the length of its hypotenuse and opposite equal

Let us call the length x

From Pythagoras’ , the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Thus, we have ;

x^2 + x^2 = (8 √2)^2

2x^2 = 128

x^2 = 128/2

x^2 = 64

x= √64

x = 8 cm

To get the largest area, the length and the width have to be as close as possible, if not the same.

Given Perimeter = 176 unit.
Length = 176 ÷ 4 = 44 units

Area = Length x Width
Area = 44 x 44 = 1936 units²

1936 units² is the largest possible area, given that the perimeter is 176 units. The dimension being 44 by 44
