Given that the lengths of two sides of a right triangle are exactly two of the equation x ^ 2-7x + 12 = 0, then the area of the right triangle is?

Given that the lengths of two sides of a right triangle are exactly two of the equation x ^ 2-7x + 12 = 0, then the area of the right triangle is?

Solve the equation (x-3) (x-4) = 0
x1=3 x2=4
If X1 and X2 are right angle sides, the area s = 0.5 * X1 * x2 = 6
If X2 is a hypotenuse
Then s = 0.5 * X1 * √ (x2 ^ 2-x1 ^ 2) = 1.5 √ 7
