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 area of an isosceles right triangle whose hypotenuse is 12 2?
The length of the hypotenuse, alone, is not sufficient to determine the area of a triangle.
What is the isosceles right triangle conjecture?
in an isosceles triangle, if the legs have length L, then the hypotenuse has length L square root of 2
What is the length of the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle that has a leg length of 10cm?
For isosceles triangle both legs are the same, 10 cm. The hypotenuse is square root of sum of legs squared, = sqrt (10 squared + 10 squared) = 14.1 cm
What is the length of the hypotenuse in an isosceles right triangle if each side is 1 cm?
It is sqrt(2).
Find the length of a leg of an isosceles right triangle whose hypotenuse measures 8 radical 2?
the answer is 8
When can the leg of an isosceles triangle be used as the height of the triangle?
Yes if the isosceles triangle is a right isosceles triangle because that leg opposite the hypotenuse is the height
What is the Formula of a hypotenuse of right triangle?
The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 13 centimeters long. How long are its sides?
The median to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divided the triangle into two triangles that are both what?
Isosceles.
What is the area of an isosceles right triangle whose hypotenuse is 12 2?
The length of the hypotenuse, alone, is not sufficient to determine the area of a triangle.
How do you find a missing length in isosceles triangle?
1) The hypotenuse side will ALWAYS be the the side w/ the radical 2. 2) So if you want to find the HYPOTENUSE of an ISOSCELES triangle, you MULTIPLY one of the LEGS by the the square root of 2. 3) If you want to find the LEG of an ISOSCELES triangle, you DIVIDE the HYPOTENUSE by the square root of 2. ***** Hypotenuse of an isosceles triangle= one leg divided by square root of 2. ***** Leg of an isosceles triangle= hypotenuse divided by the square root of 2.

What is the isosceles right triangle conjecture?
in an isosceles triangle, if the legs have length L, then the hypotenuse has length L square root of 2
What type of triangle has two equal sides and a right angle?
An Isosceles right triangle. If the length of either of the two sides is N then the hypotenuse is N times the square root of 2. an isosceles right triangle can not be an equilateral triangle since the hypotenuse can not be the same size as the other two sides..
In an isosceles right triangle the hypotenuse is radical three and if the hypotenuse is 12 then what is the smaller leg of that triangle?
If the hypotenuse is the square root of three, then the legs are (root 6)/2. If the hypotenuse is 12, then the legs are 6(root 2). This is because, for any given right isosceles triangle, the length of the hypotenuse x is root two times the length of the legs.
How do you calculate the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle?
An isosceles right triangle will always have its shorter sides of the same length, and the hypotenuse will always be this length times sin(45o) or times the square root of 0.5.
If an isosceles right triangle has a hypotenuse of 36 what is the measure of each leg?
12!!
How do you work out the base of an isosceles triangle?
Using trigonometry. The Hypotenuse x The height
What is a 45 45 90 triangle with a hypotenuse of 24?
It would be an isosceles right triangle. The two sides that aren't the hypotenuse are equal, with lengths of 16.971 (rounded) .
