a2+b2=c2
Example:
a=4
b=3
4 times 4= 16
3 times 3= 9
16+9= 25
square root of 25= 5
hypotenuse= 5

Only a right triangle has a hypotenuse. An isosceles triangle can be a right triangle but it doesn't have to be. If it's not, then it doesn't have a hypotenuse.
I'm pretty sure that only works if it is an isosceles right triangle. In that case, use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the base and height knowing only the hypotenuse. A2 + B2 = C2. A=B= height= base. C= hypotenuse
Important Formula: Sin(q) = Opposite / Hypotenuse Cos(q) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse Tan(q) = Opposite / AdjacentSelect what (angle / sides) you want to calculate, then enter the values in the respective rows and click calculate. If you want to calculate hypotenuse enter the values for other sides and angle.
The hypotenuse of a triangle with legs of 35 and 68 is: 76.48
The circumcenter is always on the midpoint of the hypotenuse when it is in a right triangle.
