The given dimensions will not create a right angle triangle.
The given dimensions will not create a right angle triangle.
A right angle because it complies with Pythagoras' theorem.
Use the sine ratio: sine 30 = opposite/12 opposite = 12*sine 30 opposite = 6 inches
The hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 12 inches and 16 inches is: 20 inches.
What is an angle in the triangle
The angle measure is: 90.01 degrees
The median to the hypotenuse of a right triangle that is 12 inches in length is 6 inches.
AC is 5 inches, as it is a Pythagorean triple. Another common one is one in which the sides are 3, 4 and 5 inches in length. Both will contain a right angle.
16.97056275 or about 17 inches
Area = 0.5*6*12 = 36 square inches
No, they do not represent a right triangle.
If you draw another altitude parallel to the height (the side which is perpendicular to the bases) of the trapezoid, you can see that a right triangle is formed.In this triangle the hypotenuse length is 17 in, and the base length equals to 28 - 16 = 12 in. From the Pythagorean theorem, height length = √(17 - 12) ≈ 12 in.Or find the measure of the angle (call it A) opposite to the height such as:cos A = 12/17A = cos-1 (12/17) ≈ 45⁰, which tells us that this right triangle is an isosceles triangle.Therefore, the height is (congruent with base) 12 inches long
