Let one side = x inches\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " The second side = 20 inches (Given)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " So, the hypotenuse = (x+10) inches. (Given)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " As per the Pythagoras theorem, \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Hypotenuse = \"sqrt%28%28side%29%5E2+%2B+%28other+side%29%5E2%29\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " So, (x+10)^2 = \"%28x%5E2+%2B+20%5E2%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " = \"x%5E2+%2B+20x+%2B+100+=+x%5E2+%2B+400\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " = \"x%5E2+-+x%5E2+%2B+20x+=+400+-+100\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " = \"cross%28x%5E2%29+-+cross%28x%5E2%29+%2B+20x+=+300\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " = So, \"x+=+frac%28300%29%2820%29\"; x = 15\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " So, the unknown side = 15 inches. Answer.\r
