You need the geometric means for right triangles. There are 3 different forms of it that help us solve for either leg, or the altitude. We are looking for how the altitude is related to the hypotenuse that is split in 2. For us that will look like this:
(r)/(h) =(h)/(s). Your answer is "s", second choice down.
