To get what must be the size of the other leg, use the formula\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"c%5E2=a%5E2%2Bb%5E2\" where c is the hypotenuse, and a/b are legs.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To find the leg we use,\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"c%5E2-a%5E2=b%5E2\" or
\n" ); document.write( "\"c%5E2-b%5E2=a%5E2\" They will just be the same.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the other leg is,
\n" ); document.write( "\"6%5E2-4%5E2=a%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%2836-16%29=a\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%2810%29=a\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the leg must be equal to, 3.16 cm :)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The dimensions are, 3.16 cm, 6 cm and 4 cm :)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
