the area of a right triangle is 60 ft2. the base of the triangle is 8 ft. what is the length of the hypotenuse? show your work.

show your (something that i can copy)

you

Remember that tif the legs of a right tirsnalge are a and b and they hypoonuse is c then
a²+b²=c²

so

we also know that the area of a triangle is 1/2bh

we are given that area=60 and base=8
so
60=1/2 times 8 times height
60=4 times height
divide both sides by 4
15=height

so the legs are 15 and 8

a=15
b=8

15²+8²=c²
225+64=c²
289=c²
sqrt both sides
17=c

the hypoonuse is 17ft

Cdoes not have two variables
