a right triangle with hypotenuse 5 km and one leg is 3km
\n" ); document.write( "Calculate each perimeter ??
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Draw the picture.
\n" ); document.write( "Calculate the length of the 2nd leg:
\n" ); document.write( "Let the length be \"x\":
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 + 3^2 = 5^2
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 = 25-9
\n" ); document.write( "x^2 = 16
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 km
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter = 5+4+3 = 12 km
