Answer:

You have to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the other side, which will be your base in the Area formula (A=1/2bh). So the Pythagorean theorem would be 36^2 + b^2 = 60^2. This gives you 48 in for your base/missing side length. Then, you plug it into the area formula. So, A=1/2(48) (36). This gives you 864 in^2 for the area of your triangle.
