The diagonal of the rectangle is 2 cm and 16 cm larger than its sides, respectively. Find the S of the rectangle.

x is the diagonal, then x-2 and x-16 sides
by T. Pythagoras:
x power 2 = (x-16) power 2 + (x-2) power 2
xvo 2 degrees-36x + 260 = 0
x = 26
x = 10 (does not fit)
one side 26-16 = 10, the second 26-2 = 24
area is 240
