\"\"

\

The sides of the right triangle are \"\" and \"\".

\

The hypotenuse is \"\".

\

Find \"\".

\

\"\"                                                        (Pythagorean theorem)

\

\"\"                                        (Substitute \"\" and \"\")

\

\"\"                       (Algebraic formula: \"\")

\

\"\"                      (Evaluate powers \"\" and \"\")

\

\"\"                                (Multiply)

\

\"\"       (Subtract \"\" from each side)

\

\"\"                                       (Apply additive inverse property: \"\")

\

\"\"                                         (Simplify)

\

\"\"                              (Factors of the the equation)

\

\"\"                               (Group of the factors)

\

\"\"                                         (Take out common terms)

\

\"\" and \"\"                               (Separate solutions) 

\

\"\" and \"\"                                       (Simplify)

\

Measurements cannot be negative.

\

Therefore, \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Find \"\" and \"\" .

\

\"\" and \"\"                                      (Original values)

\

\"\" and \"\"                                  (Substitute \"\" in the values)

\

\"\" and \"\"                                          (Addition:\"\")

\

Therefore, the values are \"\", \"\" and \"\".

\

\"\"

\

\"\", \"\" and \"\".
