Question 827650: Two equal sized triangles are cut out of a rectangular card of dimension 16 cm by 8 cm. The triangles have the maximum possible sides. What is the area of the remaining paper after the two triangles have been cut? Answer by LinnW(1048) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Make a corner to corner diagonal cut.
This will produce two triangles with leg lengths of 16 and 8.
The area of remaining paper is 0 since there is no paper left.
