Step-by-step explanation:
sides are 8,15,17cm taking smallest side x
Answer:
I mistakenly took a side 2 . If you want you can delete . But yeah method will be same . And solution is right for same .
Let shortest side be x . then hypotenuse will be
twice of it plus 1 or 2x + 1 . Other side is 2 .
Now use Pythagoras
So hypotenuse = 2(-2+√13) + 1 =2√13 - 3
