The square of the A leg is the hypotenuse squared minus 36, B squared
\n" ); document.write( "That is 4x^2-24x+36-36=4x^2-24x
\n" ); document.write( "A^2=4x^2-24x
\n" ); document.write( "A= sqrt (4x^2-24x)
\n" ); document.write( "This must be greater than 0, 4x^2>24x, x>6,
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, x must be greater than (6);
\n" ); document.write( "There are infinite possibilities greater than (6)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if x=7, we have a 6, sqrt(28) and 8 triangle, the squares on both sides=64
\n" ); document.write( "if x=10, we have a 6, sqrt (160) and 14 triangle.
\n" ); document.write( "If two sides are both x, there are infinite ways they can work to form a right triangle. They still have to fit with the Pythagorean theorem.
