in a right triangle three squares are
0:02
inscribed the areas of two of them are
0:04
four and 9 find the area of the third
0:07
Square as usual pause the video before
0:10
watching and try to solve the problem
0:12
the area of a square is equal to the
0:14
square of its side this means that the
0:16
side of the square is equal to the
0:18
square root of its area let's find the
0:20
side of the small square and denote it
0:22
as A1 it will be equal to the square <
0:25
TK of 4 which is 2 next let's find the
0:27
side of the medium square and denote it
0:29
as as A2 it will be equal to the square
0:32
< TK of 9 which is 3 the difference
0:34
between the sides of the two squares
0:36
will then be equal to 3 - 2 which equals
0:39
1 all the angles of the squares are
0:41
right angles therefore the lines on
0:43
which the sides of the two squares lie
0:45
will be perpendicular to the third line
0:48
if two lines are perpendicular to a
0:49
third line they are parallel when two
0:52
parallel lines are intersected by a
0:53
transversal corresponding angles are
0:56
equal this means the two right triangles
0:58
will be similar by the acute angle in
1:00
similar triangles corresponding sides
1:02
are proportional in this case we will
1:04
use the proportionality of corresponding
1:07
legs let the unknown leg be denoted as X
1:10
the ratio of one pair of legs x: 1 will
1:13
be equal to the ratio of the second pair
1:15
of legs 3 / 2 dividing 3 by 2 gives 1
1:19
and 1/2 thus the side of the third
1:22
Square which was equal to the sum of x +
1:24
3 will be 4 and 1/2 therefore its area
1:27
will be equal to 4 1/2 s which results
1:30
in 20.25 we write the answer the area of
1:33
the square is 20.25 square units the
1:37
