document.write( "Question 87246: the lengths of sides of a right angled triangle are respectively 6-x,13-x and 14-x.calculate the lengths of the sides.
\n" ); document.write( " let the sides of the triangle be =a,b,&c a=14-x , b=13-x &c=6-x
\n" ); document.write( " a^2=b^2+c^2 (14-x)^2=(13-x)^2+(6-x)^2
\n" ); document.write( " 196-28x+x^2= 169-26x+x^2+36-12x+x^2
\n" ); document.write( " =x^2+x^2+169+36-26x-12x-x^2+28x-196
\n" ); document.write( " = x^2+205-196-38x+28x
\n" ); document.write( " = x^2-10x+9
\n" ); document.write( " x^2-10x+9=0 (x-9)(x-1)=0 x-9=0 x=9 or x-1=0 or x=1\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "therefore if x=9 then a=14-9=5,b=13-9=4 &c=6-9=-3\r
