From the given information, we can deduce the dimensions of the bottom triangle:
- The height of the bottom triangle is 7 units (same as the top triangle).
- The length of the hypotenuse is 25 units (same as the hypotenuse of the top triangle).
- To find the length of the base of the triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem:
b^2 + 7^2 = 25^2
b^2 + 49 = 625
b^2 = 576
b = 24 units
Therefore, the dimensions of the bottom triangle are:
- Height: 7 units
- Base: 24 units
