Question

Two sides of a right triangle measure 2 units and 4 units.

4 units
2 units
What is the area of the square that shares a side with the third side of the triangle?
units2

Answer 1

Explanation:

a/q first we have to find the measurement of third side

so,

h² = a² + b²

4² = a² + 2²

16 = a² + 4

a = 16 - 4 = 12

a² = 12

a = √12 = 3.46

so,

area of square = a × a

= 3.46 × 3.46 = 11.97 sq unit

hope this answer helps you dear...take care!
