Step 1
Solve for the length of the hypotenuse: 15^2 + 3^2 = c^2 225 + 9 = c^2 234 = c^2 c = √234 c ≈ 15.3 (rounded to the nearest tenth) Show more…

Solve each problem. When appropriate, round answers to the nearest tenth. See Example 3. Manuel Bovi is planting a vegetable garden in the shape of a right triangle. The longer leg is 3 ft longer than the shorter leg, and the hypotenuse is 3 ft longer than the longer leg. Find the lengths of the three sides of the garden.

Solve using any method. Round your answers to the nearest tenth, if needed. Nautical flags are used to represent letters of the alphabet. The flag for the letter, O consists of a yellow right triangle and a red right triangle which are sewn together along their hypotenuse to form a square. The hypotenuse of the two triangles is three inches longer than a side of the flag. Find the length of the side of the flag.
