How do you determine the length of the 3rd leg in a right triangle if you have the length of the other two legs?
A right triangle only has two legs, the third side is called the hypotenuse . The square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs. The square root of the difference of the square of the hypotenuse and the square of one leg is equal to the length of the other leg.
What is the square of the hypotenuse?
The square of the hypotenuse is equal to the length of the hypotenuse times itself. This is also equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides in a right triangle.
What is the length of a hypotenuse?
A hypotenuse is the longest side of a right angled triangle. The length of a hypotenuse can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem. This states that in a right angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This means that to find the length of the hypotenuse, you need to know the lengths of the other two sides.
What is the length of the hypotenuse The legs of a right triangle are 3 and 8 centimeters longWhat is the length of the hypotenuse long?
32 +82 =9+64=73 So the hypotenuse is of length square root of 73
In a right triangle the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs?
Yes
How can you find the base of a right triangle when you have the height and hypotenuse?
The square of the length of the base plus the square of the length of the height will equal the square of the length of the hypotenuse of your right triangle, per Pythagoras. Square the hypotenuse, subtract the square of the height, and then find the positive square root of that and you'll have the base of your right triangle.
What is is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle that has legsbwith lengths of 5 and 4?
The length of the hypotenuse works out as the square root of 41
Can you make a rectangle out of two triangles and a square?
Sure, place a triangle's hypotenuse (longest side) on the other triangle's hypotenuse, that will give either a square or a rectangle. Then place the square on one end of the rectangle. For this to work though, the length of the square's side HAS to equal the length of the triangles hypotenuses, and likewise each triangle's hypotenuse much equal the length of a side of the square. Hope this is clear.
What is the length of the missing leg of a right triangle whose hypotenuse has measure 5cm and whose other leg measures 11cm?
square root of -96, which is imaginary. No such triangle is possible in this universe.

What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle that has legs with length of 5 and 4?
Square root of 41
What is the length of the hypotenuse if a right triangle has legs with the length 1 and 2?
the square root of 5

What is the length of the hypotenuse of the a right triangle if the legs have a length of 4 cm?
Use Pythagoras' theorem: 42+42 = 32 and the square root of this is the length of the hypotenuse
What is the isosceles right triangle conjecture?
in an isosceles triangle, if the legs have length L, then the hypotenuse has length L square root of 2
What is the length of the hypotenuse The legs of a right triangle are 3 and 8 centimeters longWhat is the length of the hypotenuse long?
32 +82 =9+64=73 So the hypotenuse is of length square root of 73
