Now, that you have a method of determining the lengths of any side in a right triangle, you put it into use in Wednesday's activity. Please share your answers for the perimeter (distance around) and area (number of squares) in each of the triangles. Please show perimeter as BOTH an exact answer (using radicals) and as a decimal approximation to the nearest hundredth (two decimal places.
