Find all possible lengths of the two sides.\" I drew a triangle and labeled one side 48. i tried using cosign to find the hypotenuse but i got an answer of 0. Please help. \n" ); document.write( "

Look for Pythagorean triples to help you.
\n" ); document.write( "They are leg-leg-hypotenuse combinations that meet the Pythagorean theorem.
\n" ); document.write( "3-4-5
\n" ); document.write( "5-12-13
\n" ); document.write( "8-15-17
\n" ); document.write( "7-24-25
\n" ); document.write( "20-21-29
\n" ); document.write( "12-35-37
\n" ); document.write( "9-40-41
\n" ); document.write( "So now look in the first two values of the triples for values that are factors of 48 and calculate the multiplier.
\n" ); document.write( "3-4-5 : 3*16
\n" ); document.write( "3-4-5 : 4*12
\n" ); document.write( "5-12-13 : 12*4
\n" ); document.write( "8-15-17 : 8*6
\n" ); document.write( "7-24-25 : 24*2
\n" ); document.write( "12-35-37 : 12*4
\n" ); document.write( "Then use that multiplier on all members of the triple.
\n" ); document.write( "3-4-5(16) -> 48-64-80
\n" ); document.write( "3-4-5(12) -> 36-48-60
\n" ); document.write( "5-12-13(4) -> 20-48-52
\n" ); document.write( "8-15-17(6) -> 48-80-102
\n" ); document.write( " 7-24-25(2)->14-48-50
