The legs of a triangle are 5 and 12 What is the perimeter?

With sides of 5 and 12, you can make a triangle with any perimeter you want between 24 and 34. If you call them "legs" because they are the sides of a right triangle, then the hypotenuse is 13, and the perimeter is 30.


A brace for a shelf has the shape of a right traingle its hypotenuse is 10 inches long and the wo legs are equal in length how long are the legs of the traingle .need the formula please?

The only formula you need is one that we're sure you already know.In every right triangle,(leg-A)2 + (leg-B)2 = (hypotenuse)2In this right triangle, the legs are equal, and the hypotenuse is 10.(leg)2 + (leg)2 = (10)22 times (leg)2 = 100Can you take it from there ?


What is the perimeter of a right triangle with legs of 3 and 4?

If the legs are 3 and 4 then hypothenuse is 5 (SQRT (3 squared + 4 squared)) = 5) So perimeter is 3 + 4 + 5 = 12


If a rectangle has a perimeter of 14 meters and a diagnol of 5 meters what is the area of the rectangle?

A rectangle must have four right angles and parallel sides. Therefore, you can divide the rectangle into two equal right angle triangles along the diagonal. As the perimeter is the sum of all of the sides of the triangles that aren't a hypotenuse, each of one of the triangles' legs length would add up to to half the perimeter of the rectangle i.e. 7. The length of the hypotenuse is 5. With basic trigonometry you should recognise that this is a pythagorean triple, or in otherwords the hypotenuse is 5 and the lengths of the 'legs' are 3 and 4 Now that you now know the lengths of the legs of the right angle triangles, and the legs correspond with the sides of the rectangles, you can now calculate the area: A = 4*3 = 12 m2


How do you find the perimeter of a right triangle when the length of one side is unknown?

You begin by finding the length of the unknown side. The square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs. Then once you have the lengths of all 3 sides, you adum all up, and you have the perimeter.

A right triangle has one leg four times as long as the other Find a function that models its perimeter P in terms of the length x of the shorter leg?

Legs are 'x' and '4x'.Hypotenuse is sqrt(17x2) = x sqrt(17)Perimeter = x [ 5 + sqrt(17) ]
