The length of a hypotenuse C can be calculated by squaring 'legs' A and B of a given right triangle.

Where A2 + B2 = C2

Such that 22 + 32 = C2

22 +32 = C2

4 + 9 = C2

13 = C2

√(13) = C

5cm


What is the length of the hypotenuse if the legs measure 3cm and 4cm in a right triangle?

5cm Pythagoras: a2 = b2 + c2 a = hypotenuse, b & c are the other two sides. a2 = 32 + 42 = 9 + 16 = 25 = 52


Approximate to the nearest thousandth of a centimeter the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of 3 centimeters each?

If both legs of a right triangle are the same, then it forms what is known as a "45-45-90 triangle". In this type of triangle, the hypotenuse is always √2 times more than the legs. So in this problem, with legs 3cm and 3cm, the hypotenuse is 3√2cm, or 4.243cm


Getting the hypotenuse?

Lets say we had a right triangle that we wanted to find the hypotenuse of. The 2 other sides were 6cm and 3cm. You would square each of these(multiply by themselves). You would then get 36cm2 and 9cm2. You would add these numbers (52) then find the square root of this number. (6.7cm) The answer is 6.7cmThe formula for this is: a2 + b2 =c2Keep in mind that a and b are the other sides and c is the hypotenuse


Diagonal measurement of a rectangal?

The diagonal of a rectangle is measured by using Pythagores theorem if you have the length and breadth of the rectangle. Say the length is 4cm and breadth is 3cm then the diagonal(hypotenuse) would be 42 + 32 =16 + 9= 25 = 52. Hence the hypotenuse or the diagonal is 5cm. Is that fine? Have a good day.

What triangle length are 14cm 3cm 8cm?

It is impossible to get a triangle with the side lengths 14cm, 3cm and 8cm 14cm itself is larger than the sum of two other lengths (3cm + 8cm = 11cm).


What is area of a rectangle 9cm long and 3cm wide?

To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply its length by its width. In this case, the length is 9cm and the width is 3cm. So, the area of the rectangle would be 9cm x 3cm = 27 square centimeters.
