What triangle has one right angle and can be an isosceles?
A triangle that has one right angle and is isosceles is called an isosceles right triangle.
Does an isosceles triangle have a 90 degree angle?
An isosceles triangle can have a 90 degree angle, but doesn't necessarily. Similarly, a right triangle can be an isosceles triangle, but isn't necessarily.
Why does the acute angles in an isosceles right triangle always measures 45 degrees?
The question lists three facts: "triangle", "right", and "isosceles". Each fact carries important information. -- "triangle" ... The three angles in any triangle always add up to 180 degrees -- "right" ... One angle in a right triangle must be a right angle = 90 degrees. That leaves the other 90 degrees for the other two angles to share. -- "isosceles" ... Two of the angles in an isosceles triangle are equal. If there are 90 degrees to share between them, then each of them is 45 degrees.
What triangle has one right angle and two congruent sides?
That's an isosceles right triangle.
What right triangle has legs of equal length?
A right-angled triangle can be an Isosceles Triangle, but NOT an equilateral triangle. An Isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. They form the 90 degree (right angle). The hypotenuse is opposite the right angle, and is longer than the other two sides.
