Question 818996: Using the Pythagorean Theorem, and having to leave my answer in simplest radical form, how might I do so with a triangle of unknown hypotenuse, a leg of 15, and a leg of the square root of 145?
Any help is appreciated!

Question 823735: A right triangle has an area of 60 ft(squared) and hypotenuse 17 ft. long. What are the lengths of its other two sides?
So we know that:
x * y = 120
and
x(squared) + y (squared) = 17 (squared)
but if I substitute y = 120/x into the second equation, it quickly becomes crazy. I have to multiply both sides by x (squared) to eliminate the fraction, and now I've got x to the 4th power to deal with and I get stuck.

Question 824026: the sides of a right angle triangle, in centimetres, are x, 2x-2, and x+2, where x+2 is the hypotenuse.
use pythagoras' theorem to find their lengths
in other words find x
the answer is:
x= 3cm
2x-2= 4cm
x+2= 5cm
but how do i find this?

Question 824283: A flagpole is bent over by the wind so the top is now touching the ground 12 feet from the base. The angle the pole makes with the ground is 85 degrees. How tall was the pole before the windstorm? Can you help me solve this and show me how you did it?

Question 826854: The length of a side of a right-angled triangle can be found using Pythagoras' theorem: c2 = a2 + b2, where c is the length of the longest side, and a and b are the lengths of the two shorter sides. Find the value of b in the triangle above.
triangle
a=2root3
c=4

Question 829545: Hello I have a word problem on the Pythagorean theorem. It says.... the bottom of a ladder must be placed 3 feet from a wall. The ladder is 12 feet long. How far above the ground does the ladder touch the wall? I also need help like lets say a lawn is 4 meters by 5 meters... how much is it if you cross diagonally across I dont know how to solve both of these problems.. thanxs
