Answer: squared 24 squared + 45 squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Small square = 24cm
Medium square = 45cm
Large square =?
From the diagram attached;
Since the three squares forms a right-angle triangle, with the leg of the large square forming the hypotenus.
Thus, the expression to calculate the area can thus be :
Hypotenus^2 = opposite^2 + adjacent^2
A^2 = 24^2 + 45^2
Recall that the area of a square is the square of any of it's side, since the sides of a square are are equal, that is A^2
