Architect Frank Lloyd Wright included a pool shaped like a right triangle in his design of Taliesin West in Scottsdale, Arizona. The sides of the pool that represent the legs measure 41 ft and 40 ft. Calculate the surface area of the pool.
The surface area of the pool is just the area of the triangle formed by the sides 41, 40, and the hypotenuse. We only need the side lengths though to calculate the area.
