a triangle size can vary from a millimeter to a mile! So the length can vary anywhere from a millimeter to mile. If you are referring to the degree measure, anything that is lower that 90 degrees, that adds up with the other two angles to equal 180 degrees.

How do i find the Ratio of the shortest to the longest side of a triangle?

You divide the length of the shortest side by the length of the longest side.


what- The length of the shortest side of the scalene triangle is 5 inches.Find the length of the longest side?

9 in.


What is the length of the longest side in an isosceles right triangle?

The longest length would be the hypotenuse. You can use SOHCAHTOA to find the length.


The side of a triangle is always opposite the angle with the largest measure?

No, this statement is not correct. The side opposite the largest angle is the longest side of a triangle only if the triangle is obtuse. In acute triangles, the side opposite the largest angle is the longest side, and in right triangles, the side opposite the right angle (90 degrees) is the longest side.


Classify the triangle with sides 10 13 19 as acute right or obtuse?

In a right triangle, a2 + b2 = c2, where c is the longest side. If the square of the longest side is more than the sum of the other two squares, the triangle has an obtuse angle. If it is less, all angles are acute.


What is a triangle with two acute angles which are equal and one right angle?

That's an isosceles right triangle. The two acute angles are both 45 degrees. The two shorter sides both have the same length, and the longest side is 41.421% longer than either of the short ones.


Is the longest distance between two points in a triangle the length of the longest side?

Not necessarily. The longest distance between two points in a triangle is the distance between the vertices that are farthest apart. This can be between any two vertices, not just those connected by the longest side of the triangle.


Can a acute triangle also be scalene?

Scalene means the triangle has 3 sides unequal length. Acute means the triangle has 3 acute angles (less than 90o). So you should be able to draw a scalene acute triangle pretty easily. An equilateral triangle has all sides the same length and all angles are 60o. If you stretch one side a little, and shrink another side a little you will have a scalene triangle. And as long as you haven't stretched or shrunk the sides too far, it will also still be acute.


In a right triangle the ratio of the length of the side opposite an acute angle to the length of the hypotenuse?

sin θ : 1 = the length of opposite side to angle θ : the length of the hypotenuse


What is the tangent of a right triangle?

There is no such thing as the tangent of a triangle. Circles, angles, and conversations have tangents. In a right angled triangle, the tangent of one of the acute angles is the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the side adjacent to it.
