Answer:

11 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

First we need to find the side length of the square with known areas.

Area of a square = L²

L is the side length of the square

For the green square

44 = L²

Lg = √44

For the purple square

Ap = Lp²

33 = Lp²

Lp = √33

Get the length (L) of the unknown square using pythagoras theorem;

Lg² = L²+Lp²

(√44)² = L²+(√33)²

44 = L²+33

L² = 44-33

L² = 11

Since Al = L²

Hence the area of the square adjacent to the third side of the triangle is 11 square units
