Pythagoras rules, OK!
Call sides a, b and c
a is given as 150 and c = b + 50 so 150^2 + b^2 = (b + 50)^2
ie 22500 + b^2 = b^2 + 100b + 2500 ie 100b = 20000 so b, the longer leg = 200 and c, the hypotenuse = 250.
These sides are in the ratio 3:4:5, the simplest Pythagorean triangle.
What else can I help you with?
How do you find the measures of a right triangle if the length and width are given?
The answer will depend on whether the length is the hypotenuse or one of the legs of the triangle.
How do you find the length of the sides of a right triangle when you know the hypotenuse?
If it is a 45-45-90 triangle, then divide the hypotenuse by the square root of 2. If it is a 30-60-90 triangle, then the shorter leg would be the hypotenuse divided by 2. And the longer leg would be the the shorter leg multiplied by the square root of 3.
How long is the shorter leg of a right triangle with a side of 8 inches and a hypotenuse of 40 inches?
A right triangle with a hypotenuse of 40 inches and a side of 8 inches has a leg length of 39.19 inches so the shorter leg IS 8 inches.
Find the length of a leg of an isosceles right triangle whose hypotenuse measures 8 radical 2?

What is the formula for the hypotenuse length of the nth triangle in a Theodorus Spiral?
The hypotenuse of the nth triangle has a length of sqrt(n+1)
How is the lengtht of the hypotenuse in a 30-60-90 triangle related to the length of the shorter leg?
In a 30-60-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is double the length of the shorter leg.
If the legs of a right triangle have measures of 9 and 12 what is the length of the hypotenuse?
If the legs of a right triangle have measures of 9 and 12, the hypotenuse is: 15
The legs of a right triangle measures 8 miles and 15 miles what is the length of the hypotenuse?
The length of the hypotenuse works out as 17 miles
When the shorter leg of a 30-60-90 triangle has a length of 18 what is the hypotenuse?
hypotenuse = 18/cos60 = 36
What is the length of a leg of a right triangle with hypotenuse equals 22.5km and leg equals 44.7mm?
A hypotenuse should not be shorter than a leg length.
How do you find the measures of a right triangle if the length and width are given?
The answer will depend on whether the length is the hypotenuse or one of the legs of the triangle.

How do you calculate the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle?
An isosceles right triangle will always have its shorter sides of the same length, and the hypotenuse will always be this length times sin(45o) or times the square root of 0.5.
