Providing that it is a right angle then use Pythagoras' theorem:-
32+62 = 45 and the square root of this is the hypotenuse which is about 6.708203932

What is the base of a triangle if the height is 0.5 meters and the hypoteneuse is 1 meter?
Square root 1.25
How do you find the hypoteneuse of an isosceles right triangle?
It is very unlikely for a right angle triangle to be isosceles, however it is possible if the angles are 90, 45, and 45 degrees. It does not matter if the triangle is isosceles, this method works for all right triangles. The following formula is your answer, when h=hypotenuse, and a and b are other two sides. a2 + b2 = h2
What is the ordered pair of 5x plus 3y equals 58 5x-3y equals 22?
x = 8y = 6(5x8) + (3x6) = 58(5x8) - (3x6) = 22
What is the scale factor of 3x6 and 4x9?
18 to 36 = 1 to 2
What two digit number is twice the product of its digits?
362x(3x6)
The hypoteneuse of a right triangle is the side opposite the?
It is opposite the right angle of the triangle.
What is the base of a triangle if the height is 0.5 meters and the hypoteneuse is 1 meter?
Square root 1.25
Why is the hypoteneuse the longest side of a right triangle?
The hypotenuse is defined as BEING the longest side of a triangle. In a right angle triangle, it is always opposite to the 90˚ angle, because the 90˚ angle is the largest angle of the triangle.
How do you calculate the hypoteneuse?
If it's a right angle triangle then:- a2+b2 = c2 where 'c' is the hypotenuse and the square root of this is the length of the hypotenuse when 'a' and 'b' are the other sides of the right angle triangle.
How do you find the hypotenuse of a rectangle?
You don't. A rectangle doesn't have a hypoteneuse, only a right-angled triangle has a hypoteneuse. As for the diagonal of a rectangle, you can draw it from any vertex to the opposite vertex. It's length is the square root of the sum of the squares of the longer and the shorter side-lengths.
How do you work out the hypoteneuse side of an isosceles triangle if the triangle is not right-angled and two of the sides and the angle between them are known?
Use the cosine rule: a2 = b2+c2 - 2bc*cos A An isosceles triangle has two equal sides.
What did Pythagoras find out?
Pythagoras found out that if a triangle is right-angled then the hypoteneuse (long side) squared = the other 2 sides squared and added together
How many sides and angles does 6 triangle have?
One triangle has 3 sides, and you want to know how many there will be if there are 6 triangles, so you just say "3x6=18" and there is your answer!!
What is theta?
It is a greek letter which is used to mark an unknown angle in a triangle when you are going to use trigonometry to work it out, eg. sin(theta)=length of opposite side/ length of hypoteneuse
What is the answer to -3x6-25?
-3x6-25 is equal to -43
What variable is the hypoteneuse usually represented by?
c
One leg of a right triangle is 6 inches long the other leg is 8 inches long is the length of the hypotenuse a rational or irrational number?
You have to use Pythagoras' Theorem to calculate the hypoteneuse.
