I don't believe there is enogh information to determine the angles. They must sum to ninety degrees. But there are many if not an infinite number of right triangles with the same hypotenuse whose other interior angles sum to ninety degrees.

How do you find the angle of a right triangle with the length of two legs?

Use Trigonometry. Sine(Angle) = opposite/ hypotenuse => angle = Sin^(-1)[opposite/hypotenuse[ Cosine(angle) = adjacent /hypotenuse => angle = Cos^(-1)[adjacent/hypotenuse] Tangent(angle) = opposite/adjacent => angle = Tan^(-1)[opposite/adjacent]. These trig. functions are often reduced to SOH,CAH,TOA. Depending on your calculator the inverse buttons can be Sin^(-1) or ArcSin Cos^9-1) = ArcCos Tan^(-1) = ArcTan For example. The side lengths are 5,12,13 Hence Sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse = 5/13 Angle = Sin^(-1) [ 5/13] Angle = 22.61986495.... degrees. or Angle ~ 22.6 ( 1.d.p.). Simillarly for the other angles, but make sure you use the correct Trig. Function.


What are the properties of a right-angle triangle?

A right triangle has one right angle and two acute angles. Right triangles have a hypotenuse and also two legs. You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse, or the two legs of the right triangle, as long as you have the side lengths of the other two sides on the right triangle.


What is the hypotenuse angle theorem?

The hypotenuse angle theorem, also known as the HA theorem, states that 'if the hypotenuse and an acute angle of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and an acute angle of another right triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.'


How do you classify a triangle by its angles?

If all three angles of a triangle measure less that 90 degrees (if all three angles are acute), the triangle is an acute triangle. A triangle that has a right angle (an angle the measures exactly 90 degrees) is a right triangle. (The other 2 angles will be acute angles.) A triangle that has an angle that is greater than 90 degrees (an obtuse angle), is an obtuse triangle. (The other 2 angles will be acute angles.)


How do you find the hypotenuse of a non right triangle?

By definition, the hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle in a right angled triangle. Therefore, a hypotenuse does not exist as one of the three sides in a non-right angled triangle.

Which angle has hypotenuse?

For a right angle triangle its hypotenuse is opposite its angle of 90 degrees and its other two angles are acute and its 3 angles add up to 180 degrees.


What are the base angles of hypotenuse?

If it's a right angle triangle then the other 2 angles areacute


Does sohcahtoa work on a 90 degree angle I have a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 1m no other sides or angles were provided?

No. Given a triangle with only the right angle and the hypotenuse, you cannot calculate the other sides nor the other angles.


What is degree of hypotenuse?

A triangle with an hypotenuse has a right angle that measures 90 degrees and two other acute angles,


How do you find sides of right triangle given only the hypotenuse and all angles?

One is the hypotenuse times the sine of one acute angle, the other, the hypotenuse times the sine of the other acute angle (or the cosine of the first).


How do you find the two shorter sides of a triangle when all you know if the hypotenuse and nothing else?

If it has an hypotenuse then it is a right angle triangle and if you know its angles then use trigonometry to find its other two sides.


What are the angles for a right angle?

A right angle, by definition, is 90 degrees. If you mean what are the other angles in a right triangle, you need one of the other angles in the triangle or the length of one side (not the hypotenuse) any two sides. You can then find the third side by Pythagoras, then the other two angles by simple trigonometry.


How do you find an interior angle of a triangle if you only have the hypotenuse?

To find an interior angle of a triangle when you only have the hypotenuse, you need additional information about the triangle, such as the lengths of the other sides or the type of triangle. In a right triangle, for example, you can use the sine, cosine, or tangent functions if you know one of the other sides. If the triangle is not a right triangle, you would require more data to apply the Law of Sines or the Law of Cosines to calculate the angles. Without this extra information, you cannot determine the interior angles using just the hypotenuse.


What is a shape that has three sides and on right angles?

A shape that has three sides and includes right angles is a right triangle. In a right triangle, one of the angles is exactly 90 degrees, and the other two angles are acute. The sides of the triangle consist of the two legs that form the right angle and the hypotenuse opposite the right angle.


How do you find the angle of a right triangle with the length of two legs?

Use Trigonometry. Sine(Angle) = opposite/ hypotenuse => angle = Sin^(-1)[opposite/hypotenuse[ Cosine(angle) = adjacent /hypotenuse => angle = Cos^(-1)[adjacent/hypotenuse] Tangent(angle) = opposite/adjacent => angle = Tan^(-1)[opposite/adjacent].

What is the angle that a right angle triangle has?

The angle directly opposite the hypotenuse is always 90o in a right angle triangle and if you know the other sides you can work out the other angles using one of the three trigonometry equations. Sin, Tan or Cos then use the inverse and you will get the degree.
