In a 30,60,90 the legs are in a 1:2 ratio. 5 would be the shorter leg.
This is merely a doubling of the 5-12-13 triangle. The sides are 10 and 24 ft.
Short leg is 6 feet.
You need to know something else to solve: either the long leg or the angle edit: if it is a right triangle you can use a theorem to figure out the other sides. the smallest side is a, the hypotenuse is 2a, the longer leg is a * sqrt (3) if the hypotenuse is 20, the smaller leg is 10.
The shortest leg is 3.72 m long.
Because it's a right angle triangle. Also, the hypotenuse is 2 times the shorter leg and the longer leg is the short leg times the square root of three.
The hypotenuse must be longer than the other other leg.
The longer sides of a triangle
This is merely a doubling of the 5-12-13 triangle. The sides are 10 and 24 ft.
No.
6.6 cm
Short leg is 6 feet.
The shorter leg is 9 feet long
The shorter leg is 6 feet long
A right triangle with one leg 2.968 and other leg 3.504 will have a hypotenuse of 4.592
In a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 11 and one leg of 8, the other leg is: 7.55
Shorter leg = 1Longer leg = 2Hypotenuse = sqrt(5)Cosine of angle between the longer leg and the hypotenuse = 2 / sqrt(5) = 0.89443 (rounded)The angle is 26.565 degrees (rounded)
Depending on the interpretation of your question, there are two answers.Definition. If another leg was longer, it would be called the hypotenuse.If the hypotenuse were shorter than one of the legs forming the right angle, the hypotenuse would not be long enough to reach the other leg, and therefore not be a triangle at all.
