it works on all right triangles
You use the pythagorean theorem.
Answers2 + t2 = length of diangnal2
The pythagorean theorem is a+b=c. So, a+b equals two of the three sides. Using your knowledge of what those two sides are will help you with figuring out the third side, but technically, the pythagorean theorem is used only for right triangles. a and b are the two straight sides and c is the diagonal side. your welcome. 8th grader
yes the pythegorean theorem (a2x b2=c2) is used for right triangles a and b are the legs (the sides that make up the right triangle) and c is the hypothenus(the longest side)
The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse c, a2 + b2 = c2. The converse of the Pythagorean theorem states that, if in a triangle with sides a, b, c, a2 + b2 = c2 then the triangle is right and the angle opposite side c is a right angle.
To measure triangles. To find the length of a triangles side, when two sides are already given.
The Pythagorean Theorem is used to find side lengths of right triangles. It came from the Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras.
The Pythagorean theorem is a2 + b2 = c2. It is used for right triangles. If you know two of the sides, you can use the theorem to find the third side.
You would use the Pythagorean Theorem when you are trying to determine the length of a side on a right triangle.ORYou might use the Pythagorean Theorem if you are carpenter or builder. A carpenter might use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse (longest side of the triangle) or the length of the wall or roof. Use can use this methed or theorem in any building situation.
The sum of the squares of the sides adjacent to the right angle equals the square of the side opposite it.
It states that the square of the length of the longest side is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.
The Pythagorean theorem is used to find the length of a side of a right triangle knowing the length of the other two side.
Pythagorean Theorem, dealing with side of right triangles. A2+B2=C2
The Pythagorean theorem is used to find the length of a certain side in a right triangle. If you know the length of two sides of a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, a2+ b2 = c2, to find the length of the other side. In the formula, c is the hypotenuse, which the longest side of the triangle.
it can help you find the unknown length on one side of a triangle
The Pythagorean theorem is represented as a2+b2=c2. The 2 means squared, so that the length of side a squared plus the length of side b squared equal the length of side c squared, the hypotenuse - the side opposite the right angle in a triangle.
yes
