How do you measure a hypothenuse?
it should be your c value in equations
The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is120 degrees the interior angles that are not adjacent to this exterior angle are congruent find the measure of the interior angles of the triangle?
They are all 60 degrees.
How do you use the exterior angles of a triangle to find interior angle measurements?
Theorem: An measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent interior angles.An exterior angle is formed by one side of a triangle and the extension of an adjacent side of the triangle.In the triangle at the right,
How can an angle be measured without a protractor?
Raise a perpendicular from one arm to the other. This creates a right angled triangle. Measure two of the sides of the triangle and use the appropriate trigonometric ratio and a computer/calculator/slide rule/tables to convert the ratio to an angle. eg measuring the side adjacent to the angle and the length of the side opposite the angle, which is the perpendicular raised, dividing the length of the opposite side by the adjacent side gives a value which can be looked up in arc tan tables (etc) to get the angle.
How do you find the measure of an acute angle if you only have the short leg and the long leg of a right triangle in trigometry?
Using trigonometry: tangent = opposite/adjacent

Is there such thing as a right angled triangle?
Yes, there is such thing as a right-angled triangle. The measure of the adjacent and opposite form together to create a 90 degree angle. That means that the measure of the hypotenuse and adjacent must be 45 degrees and the hypotenuse and opposite measures to 45 degrees.

What is the side adjacent to the forty degrees of a right triangle has a hypotenuse of 6 meters and one of its angles measure forty degrees?
The side adjacent to the forty degrees of a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 6 meters and one of its angles measuring forty degrees is: 4.6 meters.

What is the measure of a triangle with a hypotenuse of 37 and an adjacent leg of 12 and an opposite leg of 35?
It depends on what measure you want: the perimeter, the area, the size of the angles or something else. The question is not specific enough.
Exterior angle of a triangle?
Exterior Angle Theorem Exterior angle of a triangle An exterior angle of a triangle is the angle formed by a side of the triangle and the extension of an adjacent side. In other words, it is the angle that is formed when you extend one of the sides of the triangle to create a new line, and then measure the angle between that new line and the adjacent side of the original triangle. Each triangle has three exterior angles, one at each vertex of the triangle. The measure of each exterior angle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two interior angles that are not adjacent to it. This is known as the Exterior Angle Theorem. For example, in the triangle below, the exterior angle at vertex C is equal to the sum of the measures of angles A and B So, angle ACB (the exterior angle at vertex C) is equal to the sum of angles A and B.

What is the distance between two adjacent crests or between two adjacent?
Wavelength is the measure of distance between adjacent crests or troughs.
Are adjacent angles congruent?
they can be but are not always. for example, in a square, each interior angle is 45 degrees. Adjacent simply means that one next to another and congruent means having the same measure. So in this example, adjacent angles are congruent. However, in a scalene triangle, no two angles are the same and therefore cannot be congruent. I hope this is what you are asking Dave
