The length of one leg of a right triangle is 18 ft. The length of the hypotenuse is 6ft longer than the other leg. Find the length of the hypotenuse and the other leg.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "one leg = 18 ft\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "hypotenuse = x + 6 ft\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the other leg = x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Here is the equation:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + (18)^2 = (x + 6)^2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Can you take it from here?\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
