Is it possible for a right triangle with a leg that is 12 inches long and a hypotenuse that is 37 inches long to be congruent to a right triangle with a leg that is 35 inches long and a hypotenuse that is 37 inches long? Complete the explanation. Yes
. Let the remaining leg of the first triangle have a length of x inches. Then by the Pythagorean Theorem, x2 + 122 = 372. So, x2 + 144 = 1,369, x2 = 1,225, and x =
. Therefore, the hypotenuse and a leg of the first right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of the second right triangle, so the triangles
are
congruent by the HL Triangle Congruence Theorem.

Part a what is the area of triangle i? show your calculation. part b triangles i and ii are congruent (of the same size and shape). what is the total area of triangles i and ii? show your calculation. part c what is the area of rectangle i? show your calculation. part d what is the area of rectangle ii? show your calculation. part e rectangles i and iii have the same size and shape. what is the total area of rectangles i and iii? show your calculation. part f what is the total area of all the rectangles? show your calculation. part g what areas do you need to know to find the surface area of the prism? part h what is the surface area of the prism? show your calculation. part i read this statement: “if you multiply the area of one rectangle in the figure by 3, you’ll get the total area of the rectangles.” is this statement true or false? why? part j read this statement: “if you multiply the area of one triangle in the figure by 2, you’ll get the total area of the triangles.” is this statement true or false? why?
