The area of a triangle is expressed as A=(1/2)bh, where b=base and h=height. In a right triangle with the two shorter sides being equal, we know that the base is equal to one side and the height is equal to other. Knowing this, we can calculate the value of b and h: 6.65 = (1/2)x^2 where x=b=h. Solving for x we get 3.647 with rounded up gives 3.65. We can now find the hypotenuse by using the expression a^2+b^2=c^2. Plugging in 3.65 for both a and b and solving for c gives us the length of the hypotenuse: c = 5.16 meters
