Hypotenuse ~> 50 inches
\n" ); document.write( "Leg ~> a
\n" ); document.write( "Leg ~> 30 inches
\n" ); document.write( "a^2 + 30^2 = 50^2
\n" ); document.write( "a^2 + 900 = 2500
\n" ); document.write( "a^2 = 1600
\n" ); document.write( "a = 40
\n" ); document.write( "The width is 40 inches exactly.
\n" ); document.write( "Distance (y) = Rate (3 x 10^5) * Time (x)
\n" ); document.write( "y = 300,000x
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
