I need to solve this word problem using a quadratic equation.?

"The shortest leg of a right triangle is two less than the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is one longer than the longest leg." I need to solve for all three sides using a quadratic equation. Can you include a brief description on how you formulated the equation, and if you feel up to it how you solved it, but most importantly how you came to the equation. Thanks so much, it is very appreciated!!!
