Two choices. Which ends have the triangles? Along the 45 foot sides, or along the 100 foot sides?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If the 100 foot sides are capped with the triangles, then each triangle leg y gives you \"y%5E2%2By%5E2=100%5E2\";
\n" ); document.write( "\"2y%5E2=100%2A100\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%5E2=50%2A100\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=sqrt%2850%2A100%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=10%2Asqrt%282%2A5%2A5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=50%2Asqrt%282%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "-
\n" ); document.write( "total area would be \"45%2A100%2B%2850%2Asqrt%282%29%29%5E2\"
