He length of the longer leg of a right triangle is 3ft more than three times the length of the shorter leg. The length of the hypotenuse is 4ft more than three times the length of the shorter leg. Fin?
The length of the longer leg of a right triangle is 3ftmore than three times the length of the shorter leg. The length of the hypotenuse is 4ftmore than three times the length of the shorter leg. Find the side lengths of the triangle.
True or false A triangle with sides of lengths 10 24 and 27 is a right triangle?
false In order for this to be a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides would have to equal the square of the longest side. 102=100 242= 576 272=729 102+242= 676, which does not equal 272=729, so a triangle with these lengths is not a right triangle.
What does the triangle inequality theorem state?
The triangle inequality theorem states that any side of a triangle is always shorter than the sum of the other two sides.
Draw a triangle where the altitude is a side of the triangle?
Any right triangle resting on a leg.
A triangle has the sides of 13 15 and 17 Is it right acute or obtuse?
It's acute. Sum the squares of the shorter two sides and compare to the square of the longest side. If the sum is less, the triangle is obtuse. If they are equal, the triangle is right angle. If the sum is more, the triangle is acute. 132 + 152 = 169 + 225 = 394 172 = 289 Sum is more so triangle is acute.
How long is the shorter leg of a right triangle with a side of 8 inches and a hypotenuse of 40 inches?
A right triangle with a hypotenuse of 40 inches and a side of 8 inches has a leg length of 39.19 inches so the shorter leg IS 8 inches.
What are the three side of triangle?
They are just "sides." They usually do not have given names, unless you have a right triangle, in which the two shorter sides are called legs and the longest side (side opposite the right angle) is called the hypotenuse.
In a right triangle can the side opposite an acute angle be shorter than the side adjacent to the angle?
Certainly. In fact, if the legs of the right triangle are not equal, then that descriptionmust be true for one of its acute angles.
What is the length of the longest side of a right angled triangle if the two shorter side are 5cm and 12 cm?
13 cm
How do you prove that a triangle is a right triangle?
all the angles add up to 180 degreespythagorean theorem. if it works, you have a right angle triangle. a^2 + b^2 = c^2. the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides is equal to the square of the longest side, also known as the hypotenuse.
What are the Sides adjacent to the right angle of a triangle?
Adjacent means next to. So you're asking what sides of a triangle are next to the right angle of a triangle. That would be the 2 shorter sides of the triangle or 'legs' of the triangle. The hypotenuse (which is the longest side of the triangle) is directly across from the right angle.
Is 5 a right triangle?
If the length of only one side is known, it is not possible to determine whether or not the triangle is right angled.
Is 10 a right triangle?
If the length of only one side is known, it is not possible to determine whether or not the triangle is right angled.
What is the length of the longest side of a right angled triangle if two shorter sides are 3cm and 4cm?
5 cm
A triangle has sides of lengths 6 2 and 7 is it a right triangle?
No. For a right angle triangle, the sum of the squares of the shorter sides equals the square of the longer side (the hypotenuse): 22 + 62 = 40 72 = 49
Find the lengths of the side of the right triangle if the longest side of the triangle is four more than the shortest side and the middle side is two more than the shortest side?
There is no such right triangle. You have defined the relationship between three sides of a triangle that does not have a 90 degree angle. In a right triangle the sum of the squares of the shorter sides equals the square of the longest side and 12 + 22 = 5 ; 42 = 16 it does not equal 5 The angles in a triangle with sides 1, 2, 4 units can be found by applying the cosine rule.
What is the name for the side of a right triangle that is across the triangle from the right triangle?
This side is called the hypotenuse.
