you have found 4 congruent right-angled scalene triangles. The legs of each of these triangles measures 4 and 5 inches respectively, with the hypotenuse measuring 6 inches. Reform these triangles to make a rhombus and calculate the area, the long diagonal, the short diagonal, and what formula you used.
A right-angled scalene triangle cannot have legs that measure 4 inches and 5 inches if the hypotenuse measures 6 inches ...
Let side a = 4 and side b = 5 with side c = 6 (hypotenuse).
The Pythagorean Theorem demands that a² + b² = c²
But ............... 4² + 5² ≠ 6² (16 + 25 = 41, not 36)
