length is x
\n" ); document.write( "width is x+7
\n" ); document.write( "diagonal or hypotenuse is 13
\n" ); document.write( "so x^2+x^2+14x+49=169, squaring everything
\n" ); document.write( "2x^2+14x-120=0
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+7x-60=0
\n" ); document.write( "(x+12)(x-5)=0
\n" ); document.write( "x=12, 5
\n" ); document.write( "the length is 5 ft, width 7 ft.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
