Note: This problem has dynamic elements. This means elements such as numbers and consequently the step-by-step solution and the final answer may change overtime. Therefore, there may be a difference between a problem that is published online and the same problem exported into a PDF document.
The perpendicular projection of side a on the hypotenuse can either be:
The perpendicular projection of side b on the hypotenuse can either be:
The area of the resulting triangles in both cases are the same and obtained as:
