triangle xyz is an isosceles right triangle . if side xy is longer than side yz , and the area of the triangle is 64 , what is the measure of side xy ?
"ans b . . 16 . xy being larger means it is the hyp . . area = ( 1 / 2 ) * ( yz ) ^ 2 = 64 or yz = 8 * \ sqrt { 2 } . . therefore hyp = xy = 16"
sqrt(add(power(multiply(sqrt(64), sqrt(const_2)), const_2), power(multiply(sqrt(64), sqrt(const_2)), const_2)))
