What does an isosceles right triangle with legs of 12 units look like?
It will look like one half of a 12 x 12 square cut through diagonally. The hypotenuse angle will be 45 degrees.
If you divide length of the adjacent side of an angle in a right triangle by the length of the hypotenuse what value do you get?
Adjacent Side / Hypotenuse = Natural Cosine of the Angle. For example: Adjacent Side=20cm / Hypotenuse=40cm = 0.5 Look up 0.5 in a Natural Cosine table and look back to the degrees on the left margin, you'll find 60... 60 degrees is the angle between the hypotenuse and the adjacent side.
Who discovered the formula for hypotenuse of a triangle?
Sounds like you mean Pythagoras.
Is slant height greater than the height?
Its slant height is bigger. Think of it as a triangle: the hypotenuse is always the largest side, and the slant height is like the hypotenuse.
Which is bigger a pyramids height or its slant height?
Its slant height is bigger. Think of it as a triangle: the hypotenuse is always the largest side, and the slant height is like the hypotenuse.
What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle that has legs with lenghts of 5 and 4?
It's 6,40312. 4²+5²= hypotenuse ² 16+25=hypotenuse ² 41=hypotenuse ² |√ 6,40312=hypotenuse
What is a cosine?
In trigonometry, when we look at right triangles, the cosine is the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse.
How does math help you get to the NFL?
Geometry can be used to plan plays. look up: vectors hypotenuse force
What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle that has a base of 5 inches and a height 12 inches?
Hypotenuse^2 = base^2 + height^2, substitute the given values Hypotenuse^2 = 5^2 + 12^2 Hypotenuse^2 = 25 + 144 Hypotenuse^2 = 169 Hypotenuse = √169 Hypotenuse = 13 Thus, the hypotenuse is 13 inches.
How do you spell hypotenuse?
The spelling hypotenuse is correct.
How do you find angle of elevation when given hypotenuse and a base?
Given the hypotenuse and the base ...-- divide the (base) by the (hypotenuse); get a number less than '1'.-- the number is the 'cosine' of the elevation angle.-- either take the cos-1 of the number on a calculator, which is the angleOR-- look up the number in a table of cosines and see what angle it represents.
What is the hypotenuse of 46?
There is no such thing as the hypotenuse of one number.
