What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of lengths 15 and 36?
39
Could 3 6 and 8 represent the length of the sides of a right triangle?
No. Due to Pythagoras' Theorem, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side of the right triangle) has to be equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. If this is too wordy, call the sides a, b and c, where c is the hypotenuse. Then a2+b2=c2 for any right triangle. Hence, with 3, 6 and 8 we have 9+36=64 (or 36+9=64 depending on how you choose a and b) which is clearly wrong, so a triangle with sides of length 3, 6 and 8 is NOT a right triangle.
If the length of the line segment joining the midpoints of two sides of an equilateral triangle is 6 the perimeter of the triangle is?
36. If the length of the line segment joining the midpoints of two sides of an equilateral triangle is 6 the perimeter of the triangle is 36.
What is hypotenuse in an isosceles triangle?
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.
What is the length of BC in the right triangle below with legs of 36 and 15?
Using Pythagoras' theorem the length of the hypotenuse is 39 units of measurement.
What is the length of a hypotenuse with the right triangle sides 15 and 36?
The length of a hypotenuse with the right triangle sides of 15 and 36 is: 39
What is the area of a triangle with sides of 36 39 and 15?
It is a right angle triangle with an hypotenuse of 39 and sides of 36 and 15. Area of triangle is 0.5*36*15 = 270 square units
Does a triangle with sides 36 85 77 form a right angle?
Yes - by the Pythagorean Theorem, if it is a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse will be equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. 36² =1296 77² = 5929 85² = 7225 since 1296 + 5929 = 7225 i.e. 36² + 77² = 85² a triangle with sides 36, 77, and 85 will be a right triangle with the hypotenuse being the side of length 85 and the right angle being the angle between the sides of length 36 and 77.
A triangle with sides of lengths 27 36 and 45 is a right triangle?
yes it is.. with 45 being the longest side..:)
Experiment with the Pythagorean theorem to find lengths of the adjacent sides of a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 39 cm. The three sides should form a Pythagorean triad?
15 cm and 36 cm
What is the width of a triangle measuring 36 yards 9 yards and 15 yards?
A triangle with sides of 36yd, 9yd and 15yd is impossible.
The legs of a right triangle are 15 and 36 inches long respectively What is the area of the triangle?
270 in2
What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of lengths 15 and 36?
39
What is the hypotneuse of the right triangle if the the legs are 15 and 36?
It is 39 units in length

Will 15 centimeters 36 centimeters 39 centimeters form a right triangle?
Yes, because the given dimensions comply with Pythagoras' theorem for a right angle triangle.
If the length of the line segment joining the midpoints of two sides of an equilateral triangle is 6 the perimeter of the triangle is?
36. If the length of the line segment joining the midpoints of two sides of an equilateral triangle is 6 the perimeter of the triangle is 36.
