Is a 5cm by 12cm a right triangle?

If two sides of a triangle have lengths of 5cm and 12cm, then the third side can have any length that's more than 7cm and less than 17cm. If the third side is 13cm, then the triangle is a right triangle.


How do you find the length of the hypotenuse if the base is 15cm and the height is 8cm?

Use Pythagoras' Theorem : In a right angled triangle the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Let H be the hypotenuse then :- H2 = 152 + 82 = 225 + 64 = 289 Then H = √289 = 17cm

A quadrilateral has a width of 17cm and a length 26cm a diognal is 31cm is the quadrilateral a rectangle?

If the quadrilateral is a rectangle, the diagonal forms the hypotenuse of a right triangle with either pair of adjacent sides. Such a right triangle follows the Pythagorean theorem that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Calculation shows that the square root of the sum of the squares of the two sides is about 31.06449. Therefore, given the significant digits of the specified sides, the quadrilateral may be a rectangle, because the exact answer reduced to two significant digits is 31. If the sides were specified as 17.0000 and 26.0000, the figure would not be a strict rectangle, but would be very close to one.

Each of the equal sides of an isosceles triangle is 5 cm greater than the base. The perimeter is 46 Centimeters. What is the length of each side of the triangle?

a is one of the equal sides of the iscosceles triangle b is the base perimeter is a + a + b = 46cm a = b + 5cm subsitute a for b + 5cm in the perimeter equation b + 5cm + b + 5cm + b = 46cm This simplifies down to 3b + 10cm = 46cm subtract 10cm from both sides of the equation 3b + 10cm - 10cm = 46cm - 10cm 3b = 36cm Then divide each side of the equation by 3 3b ÷ 3 = 36cm ÷ 3 b = 12cm Subsitute b back into a = b +5cm a = 12cm + 5cm a = 17cm So you have 2 sided with the length of 17cm and the base with the length of 12cm
