Still use the Pythagorean theorem.
C2 + a2 + b2 ( c = hypotenuse )
c2 = 52 + [sqrt(2)]2
c = sqrt( 25 + 2)
c = sqrt(27)

In an isosceles right triangle the hypotenuse is radical three and if the hypotenuse is 12 then what is the smaller leg of that triangle?
If the hypotenuse is the square root of three, then the legs are (root 6)/2. If the hypotenuse is 12, then the legs are 6(root 2). This is because, for any given right isosceles triangle, the length of the hypotenuse x is root two times the length of the legs.
if two legs of a right triangle are 2 inches can the hypotenuse be 4 inches?
A^2 + B^2 = C^2 2^2 + 2^2 = 8 The square root of 8 is not 4, so the hypotenuse can not be 4 inches.
What is the hypotenuse when the legs are 20 and 14?
If its a right angle triangle then the hypotenuse using Pythagoras 2 times the square root of 149
What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs with lengths of 1 and 1?
1.414 ie root 2
In an isoceles triangle what is the length of the hypotenuse if 2 legs are 30?
If it is a right angle isosceles triangle then by using Pythagoras' theorem its hypotenuse is 30 times the square root of 2

Is the 2 legs of a triangle equal to the hypotenuse?
Not entirely. You already know that the hypotenuse is only in right triangles, and what it is, right? It's (the two legs)^2=hypotenuse^2. So, for example, if the two legs were to be 3 and 5, it would be 3^2+5^2 which would be 36. But that is the squared answer, so you have to square root it to get 6. Understand!!?

What is the length of the hypotenuse if a right triangle has legs with the length 1 and 2?
the square root of 5
Find the hypotenuse of a right triangle that has measurements of four and one half yards and twenty yards on the two legs?
To find the desired quantity, use the Pythagorean theorem. 4.5^2+20^2=hypotenuse squared So the hypotenuse is the square root of (4.5^2+20^2)
What is Hypotenuse measurement of right triangle with legs of 7 and 2?
It is an irrational number which is the square root of 53
What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs with lengths of 1 and 1?
1.414 ie root 2
In an isoceles triangle what is the length of the hypotenuse if 2 legs are 30?
If it is a right angle isosceles triangle then by using Pythagoras' theorem its hypotenuse is 30 times the square root of 2
What geomatric shape is associated with root 2?
The length of a hypotenuse of a right triangle with equal legs is equal to the length of the leg times the square root of 2.
What is the hypotenuse if the legs of a triangle are 0.024 and 0.007?
To calculate the hypotenuse of a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem. The theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. So, the hypotenuse would be the square root of (0.024^2 + 0.007^2), which is approximately 0.025.
What is the length of the legs if the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 8 inches?
its about 5.657. 8 divided by the square root of 2
