Two sides of a right triangle measure 777 units and 333 units.

Answer:
58 units squared
Step-by-step explanation:
**I'm doing the question with the 7 by 3 triangle in the picture, not 777 by 333**
Pythagorean Theorem: [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex], where c is the length of the hypotenuse.
The given sides are legs, therefore, [tex]3^2+7^2=c^2[/tex]
[tex]9+49=c^2; 58=c^2; c=\sqrt{58}[/tex]
c is also one of the sides of the square. A square's area is one of the sides' lengths squared, so:
[tex](\sqrt{58}) ^{2}=58[/tex]
Answer:
58
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the area of the square for the third side.
The equation for the Pythagorean theorem is
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
where a and b are the lengths of the two legs of the triangle, and c is the length of the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
3^2+7^2=x^2
9+49=x^2
58=x^2
The area of the square for the third side of the triangle is 58 units^2 squared.
