Step-by-step explanation:
I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.
<em>The areas of the squares adjacent to two sides of a right triangle are 32 unit square and 32 units square. Find the length,x, of the third side of the triangle</em>
My answer:
- Let a is the side length of the 1st square
The area of the 1st square is equal to 32 units square
<=>
<=> a = units
- Let b is the length of the 2nd square
The area of the 2nd square is equal to 32 units square
<=> = 32
<=> b = units
- Find the value of x
Applying the Pythagoras Theorem, we have:
<=>
<=>
<=> x = 8 units
Hope it will find you well.
