Longest side of a triangle is called?
In a right triangle (a triangle where one of the angles is exactly 90 degrees) , the longest side is called the hypotenuse. In non-right triangles, the longest side has no special name.
How can you tell by a triangle's side lengths if it is a right triangle?
If the tree sides of the triangles form a Pythagoras triplet then we can say that the angle opposite to the greatest side is a right angle.
What is the difference between an isosceles triangle and a right triangle?
In an isosceles triangle, two sides are of equal length. An isosceles triangle also has two congruent angles. An equilateral triangle is an isosceles triangle, but not all isosceles triangles are equilateral triangles. __________ A right triangle (or right-angled triangle, formerly called a rectangled triangle) has one 90° internal angle (a right angle). The side opposite to the right angle is the hypotenuse; it is the longest side in the right triangle. An isoceles triangle has TWO sides of equal length but and equilateral triangle has THREE sides of equal length.
What is the measure of the hypotenuse of a right triangle if one side is 24 inches and other side is 30 inches?
The measure of the hypotenuse of a right triangle if one side is 24 inches and other side is 30 inches is: 38.42 inches.
What is any side of a triangle called?
The sides of triangles do not have set names, except in the case of the right triangle (where one side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse). They are usually labelled arbitrarily a, b and c.
What kind of triangles measure 27 inches?
equlateral triangle and each side is 9inches
What is the triangle equality theorem?
Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe triangles can be "equal", only congruent. The measurements can be equal, but not the triangle itself.The triangle congruency postulates and theorems are:Side/Side/Side Postulate - If all three sides of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.Angle/Side/Angle Postulate - If two angles and a side included within those angles of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.Side/Angle/Side Postulate - If two sides and an angle included within those sides of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.Angle/Angle/Side Theorem - If two angles and an unincluded side of a triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.Hypotenuse/Leg Theorem - (right triangles only) If the hypotenuse and a leg of a right triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
Which side of a triangle is the leg?
In a right triangle, the legs are the two sides that meet to form the right angle. Only right triangles have legs.
How do you make a triangle with 2 triangles and 1 rectangle?
If the 2 triangles are right triangles, which are congruent to slicing the rectangle on the diagonal, then arrange one on top of the rectangle, and the other to the side, so that the two hypotenuses are in line with each other. This will make a bigger right triangle, which is similar to the smaller right triangles - each side is double of the smaller triangles.
Longest side of a triangle is called?
In a right triangle (a triangle where one of the angles is exactly 90 degrees) , the longest side is called the hypotenuse. In non-right triangles, the longest side has no special name.
Is SAS a right triangle congruency ONLY?
SAS (Side-Angle-Side) is a geometric term that describes if two triangles are congruent - whether it is a right triangle or not.
How can you tell by a triangle's side lengths if it is a right triangle?
If the tree sides of the triangles form a Pythagoras triplet then we can say that the angle opposite to the greatest side is a right angle.
Is the term hypotenuse associated with obtuse triangles?
No, it isn't. The term Hypotenuse is associated with right triangles. It is the longest side of the triangle, opposite the right angle.
Name all types of triangles for which the point of concurrency is inside the triangle?
The answer depends on what point of concurrency you are referring to. There are four segments you could be talking about in triangles. They intersect in different places in different triangles. Medians--segments from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. In acute, right and obtuse triangles, the point of concurrency of the medians (centroid) is inside the triangle. Altitudes--perpendicular segments from a vertex to a line containing the opposite side. In an acute triangle, the point of concurrency of the altitudes (orthocenter) is inside the triangle, in a right triangle it is on the triangle and in an obtuse triangle it is outside the triangle. Perpendicular bisectors of sides--segments perpendicular to each side of the triangle that bisect each side. In an acute triangle, the point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors (circumcenter) is inside the triangle, in a right triangle it is on the triangle and in an obtuse triangle it is outside the triangle. Angle bisectors--segments from a vertex to the opposite side that bisect the angles at the vertices. In acute, right and obtuse triangles, the point of concurrency of the angle bisectors (incenter) is inside the triangle.
What is HS equals HS postulate?
H S Postulate This postulate is applicable only to right triangles. If the hypotenuse and any one side of a right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and the corresponding side of another right triangle then the two triangles are congruent REGARDS:ZEESHAN ALI
Any inscribed in a semicircle is a?
All triangles inscribed in a semicircle with one side of the triangle being the diameter of the semicircle are right triangles.
What is the difference between an isosceles triangle and a right triangle?

An equilateral triangle is an isosceles triangle, but not all isosceles triangles are equilateral triangles. __________ A right triangle (or right-angled triangle, formerly called a rectangled triangle) has one 90° internal angle (a right angle).
