A hypotenuse is the long side of a right triange.

What is a rule for the 45-45-90 right triangle?

There is no single rule. It is a right angled isosceles triangle. Its long side (hypotenuse) is sqrt(2) times the short sides.


The legs of a right triangle are 8 and 28 inches long what is the area?

The formula for the area (A) of any triangle is A = 1/2base x altitude (or height). The area of a right angled triangle with base = 8 and altitude = 28 is therefore :- A = 1/2 x 8 x 28 = 112 sq inches


What is the area of a right triangle that has legs 7 cm and 4 cm long?

The area of a right triangle that has legs 7 cm and 4 cm long can be calculated using the fact that a right triangle is half of a rectangle. The area of a rectangle is l*h, so the area of a right triangle is l*h/2. In this case, the area is 14 cm^2.


What is the base length of an isosceles triangle that two sides are 34 cm and the height is 30?

Draw a line joining the top vertex to the middle of the base. This divides the triangle into two right-angled triangles, which are congruent (both have the same side lengths and angles). Each right-angled triangle has a hypotenuse length of 34 cm (the hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle). They also have a side which is the height of the triangle, 30 cm. By Pythagoras' theorem, the third side of each right-angled triangle is 16 cm long because 342 - 302 = 1156 - 900 = 256 = 162 The base of the isosceles triangle is twice that, so it's 32 cm long.


Why Hypotenuse is not called Adjacent?

When considering an angle in a right angled triangle, the adjacent is the short side next to the angle and the hypotenuse is the long one (which will be opposite the right angle)


What did Pythagoras find out?

Pythagoras found out that if a triangle is right-angled then the hypoteneuse (long side) squared = the other 2 sides squared and added together
