So I'm having trouble with my geometry homework. I tried a^2 + b^2 = c^2 but it doesn't look right. Any help? Here's the problem:
Donald wants to build a triangular fence within a plot of land he has purchased for future development. He will build a new fence along the entire driveway, which is 80 feet in length. The previous owners left behind materials for 100 feet of fencing, which Donald will use as a second side. What is the minimum amount of fencing Donald will need to purchase to create the triangular space? If, instead, Donald would like a larger fenced area, what would be the maximum amount of fencing he could use?
