In a right triangle can the side opposite an acute angle be shorter than the side adjacent to the angle?
Certainly. In fact, if the legs of the right triangle are not equal, then that descriptionmust be true for one of its acute angles.
What is the relation between the length of the two shorter sides of a right triangle?
Let the sides be a & b. a2 + b2 = The square of the hypotenuse a/b = tangent of the angle opposite a b/a = tangent of the angle opposite b ab/2 = the area of a right angled triangle.
The two shorter sides in a right triangle?
In a right triangle, the two shorter sides are called legs.
What are the three side of triangle?
They are just "sides." They usually do not have given names, unless you have a right triangle, in which the two shorter sides are called legs and the longest side (side opposite the right angle) is called the hypotenuse.
What is a side-angle inequality?
If one side of a triangle is longer than the second side, then the measure of the angle opposite the longer side is greater than the measure of the angle opposite the shorter side. I hope it will help in your study.. AJ
Why AA and SSA are no valid methods to prove triangles congruent?
Because you need information about all three parts of the triangle, either the side or the angle opposite it, for each of the sides of a triangle. In AA you are missing the third angle, you could have a triangle where both angles were the same but the height could be different giving you a taller or shorter triangle. In SSA, the angle would be the one opposite the first side, so you have no information about the third side
What are the two shorter sides of a triangle called?
The legs.
How is the lengtht of the hypotenuse in a 30-60-90 triangle related to the length of the shorter leg?
In a 30-60-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is double the length of the shorter leg.
The two shorter side of a right triangle are known as?
The short sides of a right triangle are the legs.
What is a triangle that has two angles that are 30 each and two shorter sides that is the same?
isosceles triangle
What triangle has two equal sides and one longer one?
An isosceles triangle. It is an isosceles triangle even if the third side is shorter.
Give a example of theorem on geometry?
An example is Pythagoras's Theorem: that the sum of the squares of the two shorter side lengths of a triangle with a right-angle is equal to the square of the length of the side opposite the right angle.
