The length of the hypotenuse, alone, is not sufficient to determine the area of a triangle.
in an isosceles triangle, if the legs have length L, then the hypotenuse has length L square root of 2
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
It is sqrt(2).
the answer is 8
Yes if the isosceles triangle is a right isosceles triangle because that leg opposite the hypotenuse is the height
The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 13 centimeters long. How long are its sides?
Isosceles.
The length of the hypotenuse, alone, is not sufficient to determine the area of a 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.

in an isosceles triangle, if the legs have length L, then the hypotenuse has length L square root of 2
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..
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.
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.
12!!
Using trigonometry. The Hypotenuse x The height
It would be an isosceles right triangle. The two sides that aren't the hypotenuse are equal, with lengths of 16.971 (rounded) .
