Hello all! :)


While working on a personal project, I encountered the following math problem. I have a triangle with sides A, B, and C. I know the length of C = 15,3. Furthermore, I know that B / A = 7, so I can conclude that B = 7A. The triangle is a right angled triangle. To illustrate the problem, I have uploaded a visual representation attached to this post.


My goal is to know the lengths of sides A and B.


Is it possible to calculate those, and if so, how? It seems like a simple problem to solve with Pythagoras, but it's been years since I last touched any formulas. I've been breaking my head over it for the past few hours and just can't seem to get a (correct) answer. Do I need more information to calculate this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
