Question 473488
<pre>
Hi. Im going into 8th grade and my teacher gave us homework to do over the summer. I cant remember how to do any of these problems.
A little help is a ll i need,
Leg A : 12
Leg B: x-7
Leg C: x+1 
WHAT DO I DO?
=============
It would behoove you to provide more information.!

If what @THEO states is true - that this may be a right-angled triangle - his statement that B could be the HYPOTENUSE is
dead-wrong!! Side B = x - 7 is obviously SHORTER than side C = x + 1. So, side B CANNOT be the hypotenuse!!

Also, from what I recall, a right-angled triangle DOES NOT have 3 legs. Instead, it has a HYPOTENUSE (longest side), and
2 legs (one longer than the other or 2 CONGRUENT legs that would make it an ISOSCELES right-angled triangle).

Repost with more information, if help is still needed!</pre>
