You need both leg lengths to compute the hypotenuse, or an angle (other than the 90°) and a leg length. So there is not enough information to answer.

If both of the legs are 4 cm, then, to get the answer, you must use the Pythagorean Theorem.(A squared+B squared=C squared) 4 cmX4 cm=16cm+4 cmX4 cm=32 cm. The square root of 32=5.6568542. Therefore, the answer, assuming that you meant both of the legs were 4 cm, is 5.6568542.

What are some examples of scalen triangles?

A scalene triangle is a triangle that does not have a right angle in it (i.e. not a right angled triangle) and does not have two (or three) sides with the same length (i.e. not an isosceles triangle or an equilateral triangle). An example is a triangle with sides of length 4cm, 5cm and 6cm.

What type of triangle has sides 3cm 4cm and 5cm?

The triangle with sides measuring 3cm, 4cm, and 5cm is a right triangle. This can be determined by applying the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2, confirming that the triangle is a right triangle.

What tipe of triangle has sides 4cm 5cm and 4cm?

Well, honey, that's no ordinary triangle, that's an isosceles triangle. Two sides are the same length, so it's like those twins you can't tell apart. Just make sure to measure those angles too, we don't want any surprises popping up like a bad reality show.
