A right triangle has sides of length 3 ft., 4 ft., and 5 ft.

OpenStudy (ibbutibbu.):

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

3²+4²=5²

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Remember this triple, and all it's multiples (such as `6,8 and 10` )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah pythagoras thm...

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I thought that you were asking a question, @marshaf, weren't you? All you've done so far, is gave a statement that 3 4 and 5 is a Pythagorean triple.

OpenStudy (ibbutibbu.):

ikr

OpenStudy (camerondoherty):

Its probably like part of the question hes asking... Sometimes the question is like: 1 meter is 3 feet How many meters are in 22 feet?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

doesn't really look like a question though

OpenStudy (camerondoherty):

lol

OpenStudy (camerondoherty):

Proably gonna ask what is the area of the triangle

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

3 × 4 ÷ 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AREA : The 3' and 4' lengths are then the width and length of a rectangle. (The 5' side runs diagonally across the rectangle.) The area of the rectangle is l*w or 3*4=12 ft^2. The right triangle has half the area of the rectangle and so must have an area of 6 ft^2.
