Yes if the isosceles triangle is a right isosceles triangle because that leg opposite the hypotenuse is the height
What is the definition of leg of an isosceles triangle?
It is one of the two equivalent sides on the isosceles triangle.
Why is isosceles triangle?
The word "isosceles" comes from Greek roots and means "equal leg." An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length.

What is a leg in geometry?
A "leg" is the term used in geometry to describe the two sides that are equal in length in an isosceles triangle.

How do you find a missing length in isosceles triangle?
1) The hypotenuse side will ALWAYS be the the side w/ the radical 2. 2) So if you want to find the HYPOTENUSE of an ISOSCELES triangle, you MULTIPLY one of the LEGS by the the square root of 2. 3) If you want to find the LEG of an ISOSCELES triangle, you DIVIDE the HYPOTENUSE by the square root of 2. ***** Hypotenuse of an isosceles triangle= one leg divided by square root of 2. ***** Leg of an isosceles triangle= hypotenuse divided by the square root of 2.
