The legs of a triangle are 5 and 12 What is the perimeter?
With sides of 5 and 12, you can make a triangle with any perimeter you want between 24 and 34. If you call them "legs" because they are the sides of a right triangle, then the hypotenuse is 13, and the perimeter is 30.
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle when all three sides are given?
If you have the length of each of the three sides of a triangle, you can find the perimeter of (the distance around) the triangle by adding the length of the sides. Their sum will be the perimeter of this geometric shape.
How can you find sides of a triangle if one of the side and perimeter is given?
That depends on what type of triangle is if the side given is equal to the perimeter divided by 3 then it is an equilateral triangle.
How can you tell if the given lengths can be the sides of a triangle?
you can fine the perimeter
What is the perimeter of a triangle?
For any triangle, it is the sum of the lengths of the sides a, b, and c. (P = a + b + c)For a right triangle, it is a + b + [sq rt (a2 + b2)]for the two sides and the hypotenuse (diagonal).It is the sum of its 3 sides
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle with grid paper and no given sides?
count the grids
If a right triangle has sides of 16Cm and 12Cm what is the hypotenuse?
If a right triangle has sides of 16Cm and 12Cm, the hypotenuse is: 20 cm
How do you know the other two sides of right angled triangle if perimeter is 50 cm and hypotenuse is 12 cm?
I spent some time attempting to work this out by algebra and came to the conclusion that there is no (real) solution to this. This triangle does not exist. Rather than my writing a page on it which culminates in a quadratic equation without real roots, I will just point out that the two statements in this question can not both be true! If the hypotenuse (which is the longest side) is 12cm then the perimeter can not be 50cm! There is an error in either the hypotenuse given or the perimeter given. I wish I had spotted this a little sooner. ~ A simple reason why this cannot be a plausible length for the hypotenuse: The hypotenuse's length should be the greatest length in the triangle. If we subtract 12 from 50, we get 38. If the two sides were equal, then one leg's length is 19. 19 is greater than 12.
What is the triangle perimeter?
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its 3 sides
What is the perimeter of triangle?
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its three sides.
What are the sides of a triangle called?
Given the reference perspective of a specific angle the sides are are the adjacent sides and the opposite side If we have a right triangle the longest side (opposite the right angle) is the hypotenuse.
What is the length of a hypotenuse with the right triangle sides 15 and 36?
The length of a hypotenuse with the right triangle sides of 15 and 36 is: 39
