The bug that is 2 inches long and has six legs, wings, and a triangle on its back sounds like a stinkbug. When it is disturbed, this bug will let out a very fowl odor.
The hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 12 inches and 16 inches is: 20 inches.
The area is 294 square inches.
The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of lengths 6 and 8 inches is: 10 inches.
the measure of the base in the similar triangle would be 24 inches because you are increasing by a scale factor of (3/1)
Two back legs and 2 wings.
13 inches
Lets work it out:- If the legs are 12 and 16 inches, then a rectangle of that size would be 192 square inches in area. As the the diagonal of the rectangle makes two equal triangles (of legs 12 and 16 inches), the area of one of these is half the area of the triangle - 192/2 = 96 square inches.
The black beetle has six legs and a hard brown back wings. It is also a beetle that does not use the wings to fly but instead crawls on its legs.
Two back legs and 2 wings.
Area = 0.5*21*28 = 294 square inches
The approximate length of the other leg of the triangle is: 11.9 inches.
