Use Pythagoras' theorem:
62+62 = 72 and the square root of this is the length of the hypotenuse which is about 8.485 cm to 3 d.p.

What is the measure of an angle in a right angled triangle found by dividing the length of the side adjacent to the angle by the length of the hypothenuse?
cosine
A right triangle has a hypotenuse of 155 centimeters and a leg of 124 centimeters Which of these is the length of the other leg?
From the Pythagorean theorem, leg1squared plus leg2 squared = hypothenuse squared. If leg 1 = 124 and hypothenuse is 155 then 155 squared - 124 squared is 8649 and the leg2 is square root of 8649 = 93 cm
What is the length of the hypothenuse of a right triangle that has legs with lengths of 5 and 4?
sqrt (25 + 16) ie 6.4
What is in a right triangle the longest side which is opposite the right angle?
That is called a "hypothenuse".

What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with a 13 centimeters base and a 6 centimeters height?
The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with a 13 cm base and a 6 cm height is 14.32 cm
How do you know which is the smaller angle of a right triangle?
It is the angle formed by the hypothenuse and the longest of the other sides
What is the conclusion of pythgoras theorem?
Pythogaras Theorem applies only to right-angled or right triangles. The theorem states that in any right angle triangle, the square of the lenght of the longest ( called the Hypothenuse) equals the sum of the squares of the other sides of the triangle
What is the formula to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle with 2 sides given?
c2=a2 + b2 where c2 is the hypotenuse squared and "a" and "b" are each side of the triangle Remember the hypotenuse is the length of the triangle opposite the right angle. Rearrange the formula so the hypothenuse c = the square root of a2 + b2

8.6cm
Do all triangles have one hypotenuse and two sides?
No, only right triangle has one hypothenuse and two sides.
