It is the median which divides the side which is not one of the equal sides.
What is the length of a leg of an isosceles right triangle if it is area is 72 square inches?
12!!
Each leg works out as 9.998489886 to comply with Pythagoras' theorem for a right angle triangle.
The two legs that are congruent can be called x and x respectively, while the third non-congruent leg is ?2
Yes if the isosceles triangle is a right isosceles triangle because that leg opposite the hypotenuse is the height
It is one of the two equivalent sides on the isosceles triangle.
1) The hypotenuse side will ALWAYS be the the side w/ the radical 2. 2) So if you want to find the HYPOTENUSE of an ISOSCELES triangle, you MULTIPLY one of the LEGS by the the square root of 2. 3) If you want to find the LEG of an ISOSCELES triangle, you DIVIDE the HYPOTENUSE by the square root of 2. ***** Hypotenuse of an isosceles triangle= one leg divided by square root of 2. ***** Leg of an isosceles triangle= hypotenuse divided by the square root of 2.

It is the median which divides the side which is not one of the equal sides.
The isosceles triangle wasn't invented. The word isosceles is from Late Latin and from Greek isoskelēs, from iso- + skelos leg.
The word "isosceles" comes from Greek roots and means "equal leg." An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length.
Either of the two congruent sides of an isosceles triangle. See attached link for a picture.
What is the length of a leg of an isosceles right triangle if it is area is 72 square inches?
It is usually called a "leg".
If the base of an isosceles triangle is 11 and its perimeter is 39, then it has a height of 12.87.
12!!
There is no formal definition: it is any side of a triangle. Often, if the triangle has a horizontal base, then it is one of the sloped sides. In a right angled triangle, it is one of sides adjacent to the right angle. In an isosceles triangle, it is one of the equal sides.
