Can you show how a right triangle has one line of symmetry?

the only way for a right triangle to have a line of symmetry, is if the legs of the triangle are congruent. Or you can show that both non-right angles are congruent (45 degrees). you may also prove that the altitude of the triangle bisects the hypotenuse or that it equals 1/2 of the hypotenuse.


What two triangles which are not congruent?

No isosceles triangle in the world is congruent to any equilateral triangle. No equilateral triangle in the world is congruent to any right triangle.


What are the four congruence theorems for a right triangle?

The four congruence theorem for right triangles are:- LL Congruence Theorem --> If the two legs of a right triangle is congruent to the corresponding two legs of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.- LA Congruence Theorem --> If a leg and an acute angle of a right triangles is congruent to the corresponding leg and acute angle of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.- HA Congruence Theorem --> If the hypotenuse and an acute angle of a right triangle is congruent to the corresponding hypotenuse and acute angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.- HL Congruence Theorem --> If the hypotenuse and a leg of a right triangle is congruent to the corresponding hypotenuse and leg of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.


Is a right triangle congruent to an obtuse triangle?

no it cant be...


The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 32centimeters find the length of an altitude of the triagle to the nearest tenth of a centimeter?

Since an equilateral triangle has three congruent sides (and 3 congruent angles, each of 60⁰), the length of each side is 32/3 cm. If we draw one of the altitudes of the triangle, then a right triangle is formed where the side of a triangle is the hypotenuse, and the altitude is opposite to a 60 degrees angle. So we have, sin 60⁰ = altitude/(32/3 cm) (multiply by 32/3 cm to both sides) (32/3 cm)sin 60⁰ = altitude 9.2 cm = altitude


What is Hypotenuse Leg?

If the hypotenuse and a leg of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and a leg of another right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.


What type of triangle has 1 right angle and 2 congruent sides?

Isosceles Triangle - 2 congruent sides Equilateral Triangle - all three sides are congruent Scalene triangle - no sides are congruent


What is a Scalene right triangle?

A scalene right triangle is a triangle that has no congruent sides and and one right angle.


What is a triangle with a right angle and two congruent sides?

A right isosceles triangle.


What is a triangle with a right angle but no congruent sides?

That is simply called a right triangle.
