Is called a leg.
No it can't. The hypotenuse of a right triangle will always be longer than either one of the other two sides.
In can, but it doesn't have to. Triangles can be either isosceles or scalene.
A right triangle.
There is no such right triangle. You have defined the relationship between three sides of a triangle that does not have a 90 degree angle. In a right triangle the sum of the squares of the shorter sides equals the square of the longest side and 12 + 22 = 5 ; 42 = 16 it does not equal 5 The angles in a triangle with sides 1, 2, 4 units can be found by applying the cosine rule.
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.
In a right triangle, the two shorter sides are called legs.
The short sides of a right triangle are the legs.
Leg!
They are called the legs or the catheti.
They are the two shorter sides which meet to form the right angle.
Adjacent means next to. So you're asking what sides of a triangle are next to the right angle of a triangle. That would be the 2 shorter sides of the triangle or 'legs' of the triangle. The hypotenuse (which is the longest side of the triangle) is directly across from the right angle.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 c= hypotenuse a and b are the legs (sides) of the triangle
The hypotenuse of any right triangle is longer than either one of the other two sides of the same right triangle. But it's shorter than their sum.
The two shorter sides are the legs.
If you know the length of the sides, you can use Pythagoras' Theorem to calculate the height. Use half the base for one of the shorter sides, and either of the two identical sides of the triangle for the hypothenuse. Solve for the other one of the shorter sides (the height).
The right angle is formed by the intersection of the triangle's "legs".
No. For a right angle triangle, the sum of the squares of the shorter sides equals the square of the longer side (the hypotenuse): 22 + 62 = 40 72 = 49
