--------------------------------------------
Leg A= x^2
Leg B= x^2
Hypotenuse= 8.5 in
What is x?e
AKA 8.5^2=x^2+x^2
--------------------------------------------
The equation did not match how Leg A and leg B were assigned.



%28x%5E2%29%5E2%2B%28x%5E2%29%5E2=8.5%5E2

2x%5E4=72.25

x%5E4=36.125

x is close to 2.4516.
