In a right triangle, the length of the longer leg is 7 more than the shorter leg. the length of the hypotenuse is 8 more inches than the shorter leg. what is the length of the hypotenuse
This can be done by setting the legs of the triangle as x and x+7 and the hypotenuse as x + 8. You can then use the Pythagorean Theorem to set it up and the quadratic equation to solve.
