Find SQ using the Pythagorean theorem,
\n" ); document.write( "\"RQ%5E2%2BSQ%5E2=RS%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%5E2%2BSQ%5E2=13%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"SQ%5E2=169-24\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"SQ%5E2=144\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"SQ=12\"
\n" ); document.write( "So,
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=%281%2F2%29bh\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=%281%2F2%29%28SQ%29%28RQ%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=%281%2F2%29%2812%29%285%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply that out for the final answer.
