The answer is C) 300 square feet The way I figured this out is because by having the diagonal it is the same as cutting a rectangle in half , it forms a triangle and by using the Pythagoras therom I found the left over side
The hypotenuse was 25 and one the sides was 20 so... 25 ^ 2 - 20^2 = x ^2 625 - 400 = x^2 225 = x^2 15= x
So now that I had one of the sides I took that and multiplied it by the base to find my area 15 * 20 =300 And that is how I got the answer
