The shorter leg of a right triangle is 14 feet less than the other leg. Find the length of the two legs of the hypotenuse is 25 feet.

  9.233 ft, 23.233 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If the shorter leg is x, then the longer leg is x+14 and the Pythagorean theorem tells you ...

  x^2 + (x +14)^2 = 25^2

  2x^2 +28x +196 = 625

  x^2 +14x = 214.5

  x^2 +14x +49 = 263.5

  (x +7)^2 = 263.5

  x = -7 +√263.5 ≈ 9.23268

The two leg lengths are √263.5 ± 7 feet, {9.23 ft, 23.23 ft}.

9 ft, 23 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the Pythagorean Theorem is a²+b²=c². Since one leg is 14 less than the other leg, we can use x-14 and the other leg would be x. We can plug these into the Pythagorean Theorem with the given hypotenuse.

(x-14)²+x²=25²

(x²-28x+196)+x²=625

2x²-28x+196=625

2x²-28x-429=0

When we solve for x, we get and .

Note, since we rounded to 23, the hypotenuse isn't exactly 25, but it gets very close.

the answer is thin because within context, the stanza concludes the and frail tone the people have toward each other, and the fact that it would be thin, makes the most sense compared to "pliable" or "not hard or firm to the touch". hope this , good luck.
