Yes, because a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse. Therefore, if a and b are equal, so will c.

To use the HL theorem to prove two triangles are congruent the triangles must be right trianglesWhich other conditions must also be met?

1. There are two right triangles. 2. They have congruent hypotenuses. 3. They have one pair of congruent legs.


Can isosceles triangles be right?

Yes, isosceles triangles can be right triangles. An isosceles triangle has at least two sides of equal length, and if one of the angles is a right angle (90 degrees), the triangle is classified as a right isosceles triangle. In this case, the two equal sides are the legs of the triangle, and the third side is the hypotenuse.


What are the two lengths of a right angle triangle with a hypotenuse of 4.2?

We're pretty sure you're looking for the two "legs", not the two "lengths". The answer is: You can't tell. There are an infinite number of different right triangles with different leg-lengths that all have hypotenuses of 4.2 . The only thing you know about the two legs is that the squares of their legs add up to 17.64, but there's no way to know both individual lengths.


Are some right triangles are also equilateral triangles?

No because all right triangles have 2 legs and a hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is always longer than either leg so right triangles can't be equilateral triangles.


The area of right triangles with legs 2 and 2?

the answer is 4


Are the sides of right triangles also called legs?

yes they are!


Are right triangles called equilateral?

No, because the hyponenuse is always longer than the legs, so they are not equal, a squared + b squared = c squared


The LL theorem states that for right triangles two congruent what are sufficient to prove congruence of the triangles?

LEGS


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.


Two right triangles are congruent if the legs of one triangle are congruent to the legs of the other triangle?

true


In a right triangle the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the?

pythagorean theorem is a2 + b2 = c2 (only in right triangles) c is the length of the hypotenuse, and a and b are the lengths of the other two legs.


What shape has three different sized sides?

A three-sided shape is called a triangle. There are three types of triangles: equilateral triangles, iscosceles triangles, and scalene triangles. Equilateral triangles have all equal sides and angles; iscosceles triangles have two congruent legs and a base, and scalene triangles do not have any equal sides or angles.
