Algebra.Com's Answer #503476 by LinnW(1048)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since the radius is 2.5, the diameter is 5. \n" ); document.write( "A diagonal for the rectangle is equal to this diameter. \n" ); document.write( "We have a triangle with side lengths of 5 and 4. \n" ); document.write( "5 is the hypotenuse. Set x = the length of the \n" ); document.write( "other side of the triangle. \n" ); document.write( "So \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "add -16 to each side \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "x = 3 \n" ); document.write( "We have side lengths of 3 and 4 so \n" ); document.write( "the area = 3*4 = 12 \n" ); document.write( " |
