A square and a triangle have an equal perimeters with the length of three sides of the triangle being 6.2 cm 8.3 cm and 9.5 cm so what is the area of the square?

Area of the square if 36 cm2
Explanation
Since a square has 4 sides of equal length, we solve this problem by finding the perimeter of the triangle and dividing that number by 4.
We are given the lengths of the 3 sides so the perimeter is their sum. Sine the perimeter of the triangle is 24, we know the each side of the square is length 6.
The area is 62 or 36

In any 45-45-90 triangle the length of the hypotenuse is times the length of a leg.?
False because in any right angle triangle Pythagoras' theorem states that a^2 +b^2 = c^2 whereas 'a' and 'b' being the legs of the triangle with 'c' as its hypotenuse
What is the perimeter of square with one length being 17 inches?
Since a square has four sides of the same length, the perimeter of the square is going to be 17 x 4 = 68 inches.
What has all equal sides and all equal angles?
Many different shapes; Square being the most obvious, Equilateral Triangle, Any Regular Polygon
Are all the sides of a right triangle perpendicular?
If you have a triangle then one of the sides cannot be perpendicular to the other two. It is true for a square but it is impossible with a triangle. Definition of perpendicular: Being at right angles to the horizontal; vertical.
How can triangles be classified by their sides?
There are three ways to classify a triangle by its sides:A scalene triangle is a triangle where no two sides are of the same length. That is, all three sides are different lengthsAn isosceles triangle is a triangle where at least two sides have equal length. (Note: In some textbooks, they define an isosceles as having exactly two sides with equal length).An equilateral triangle has all three sides with equal lengths. By the first definition for isosceles, this means that an equilateral triangle would also be isosceles. It all depends on the book being used.
In any 45-45-90 triangle the length of the hypotenuse is times the length of a leg.?
False because in any right angle triangle Pythagoras' theorem states that a^2 +b^2 = c^2 whereas 'a' and 'b' being the legs of the triangle with 'c' as its hypotenuse
If the square of the length of the longest side of a triangle is greater than the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides of what kind of triangle?
It would be an obtuse triangle with one angle being greater than 90 degrees.
In a 45-45-90 triangle the shorter leg is 5 what is the longer leg?
Because it's a right angle triangle with the shorter legs being the same length use Pythagoras' theorem: 52+52 = 50 and the square root of this is about 7.071067812 units in length An exact answer is 5 times the square root of 2 which would be in surd form.
What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle?
you follow the formula: a2 + b2 = c2 (a & b being the legs of the triangle and c being the hypotenuse)
Is a hypotenuse equal to the sides of an equalateral triangle?
Yes. The equilateral triangle will have all sides with the same length. An equilateral triangle will ALSO be a equiangular, with each angle being 60 degrees. This fact does not extend to other polygons. An equilateral quadrilateral is a rhombus, while an equiangular quadrilateral is a square.
IS IT TRUE THAT EVERY EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE IS AN ISOSCELES TRIANGLE?
That is incorrect. An equilateral triangle is where ALLthe sides of the triangle are the same length. This results in all three of the internal angles being 60 degrees.However, a Isosceles triangle only has TWO sides that are the same length. This results in two of the internal angles being the same with and the other angle being a smaller angle to add up to the 180 degrees.
Could 1 2 and the square root of 3 be the sides of a right triangle?
Or course. 1 & sq. rt. of 3 being the sides, 2 being the hypotenuse.
An equilateral triangle measures 9 inches on each side its area is?
(81/4)*(sqrt(3))The area of a triangle is expressed by 1/2 bh, where b is the base length of the triangle, and h is the vertical height. In this instance, the base is equal to 9. The height of an equilateral triangle can be found using the Pythagorean theory with a being half the length of one side of the equilateral triangle, h being the height, and c (the hypotenuse) being the length of one side of the equilateral triangle.Thus,a2+h2=c2(9/2)2+h2=(9)2h2=81-(81/4)h=9(sqrt(3))/2So, A=1/2 bh=1/2 (9)(9(sqrt(3))/2)=(81/4)*(sqrt(3))Area = 1/2 * length * heightheight is square root 2(9)2 = square root 2(81)=square root 192 = 13.85640646...1/2 * 13.85640646 * 9 = 62.3538290 est. to 62.3 square inch
Does a triangle with sides 36 85 77 form a right angle?
Yes - by the Pythagorean Theorem, if it is a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse will be equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. 36² =1296 77² = 5929 85² = 7225 since 1296 + 5929 = 7225 i.e. 36² + 77² = 85² a triangle with sides 36, 77, and 85 will be a right triangle with the hypotenuse being the side of length 85 and the right angle being the angle between the sides of length 36 and 77.
How is an equilateral triangle an isosceles triangle?
An equilateral triangle, by definition, has three sides of equal length. The definition for an isosceles triangle is that it must have two sides of equal length, the other side being free to have any length. Based on these two definitions, we can say that an equilateral triangle is a special case of the isosceles triangle, namely one where the third side is also equal to the other two sides.
What triangle has one right angle and two sides the same length?
An isoceles triangle has two angles that are the same length with the third being different. It can be a right angle or another angle. or it's also called a Right Isosceles triangle.
