That's not enough to pin down the lengths of the two legs.

There are millions of right triangles that have a hypotenuse of 73.

Here are two of them:

---> (18.1384), (70.7107), (73)

---> (50), (53.1883), (73)

Is there such thing as a right angled triangle?

Yes, there is such thing as a right-angled triangle. The measure of the adjacent and opposite form together to create a 90 degree angle. That means that the measure of the hypotenuse and adjacent must be 45 degrees and the hypotenuse and opposite measures to 45 degrees.


How do you figure the long side of a triangle?

The longest side of a triangle is opposite its biggest angle.


How do you figure out the degrees of a triangle without protractor?

Because the 3 interior angles of any triangle add up to 180 degrees.


Can an equilateral triangle be a parallelogram?

No. Every triangle has 3 sides, and every figure with 3 sides is a triangle. So no triangle can be a parallelogram. Every parallelogram has 4 sides, and every figure with 4 sides is a quadrilateral. So no parallelogram can be a triangle.


What 3 dimensional figure is formed by continually rotating a right triangle 360 degrees?

What figure has two conguruent sides and its angles measure up to 180 degrees?

An isosceles triangle.


Angles that add up to 180?

If all of the angles add to 180 degrees the figure is a triangle. * * * * * That is if they form a plane figure. Angles that add to 1890 degrees are called supplementary angles.


How do you find the length of the sides if the right triangle has 60 degrees?

Since the triangle is a right triangle, then it has a 90 degree angle. Given the fact that another of the angles is 60 degrees, the third angle MUST be 30 degrees. This is because the three angles in a triangle must add up to 180 degrees total. So you are talking about one of the "special" triangles... a 30-60-90 triangle. In a 30-60-90 triangle, the ratios of the lengths never changes, and here is how your figure them out. Find the 30 degree angle. The leg opposite that angle should be of length 1. Find the 60 degree angle. The leg opposite that angle should be sqrt(3). Find the hypotenuse. Its length should be 2. So for a 30-60-90 triangle, the lengths are 1-sqrt(3)-2 OR any multiple of this.


Will the sides of the triangle change if rotate a figure 90 degrees clockwise about origin?

No, only their positions will change.


Does the sum of the interior angles of a rhombus equal 180 degrees?

No. The sum of the interior angles of any figure is [ 180 degrees x (2 less than the number of sides) ]. Any triangle . . . 180 degrees Any 4-sided figure, including a rhombus . . . 360 degrees Any 5-sided figure . . . 540 degrees Any 6-sided figure . . . 720 degrees . . . etc.


Is a triangle a closed figure or open figure?

yes, a triangle is a closed figure


Is a triangle a solid figure?

No- a triangle is a plane figure, not a solid.
