What is the hypotenuse if the legs are 15 and 23?

If its a right angle triangle then the hypotenuse works out as the square root of 754


Can 25 23 and 7 be sides of a right triangle?

No because the sides don't comply with Pythagoras' theorem for a right angle triangle.


Is a triangle with sides of length 6 ft 21 ft 23 ft a right triangle explain why?

No it is not. To be a right triangle the largest number squared has to equal the sum of the squares of the other two sides (Pythagorean theorem).


What is the length of the longer leg of a 30-60-90 triangle to the length of its hypotenuse?

How can you tell if 3 sides of a triangle are acute or obtuse?

First you would square the length of each of the sides. You'd add the squares of the smaller two numbers. If they are smaller than the square of the biggest side, then the triangle is obtuse. If their sum is bigger, then the triangle is acute. If they are equal, then the triangle is a right triangle.Example:length of sides-23, 34, 49232+342__492529+1156__24011685


If The shortest side of an isosceles triangle is 23 cm less than twice as long as the other sides The perimeter of the triangle is 41 cm Find the lengths of the three sides?

x+x+(2x-23)=414x-23=414x=64x=16x=16(2x-23)=9


Tell whether each triangle with the givin side lengths is a right triangle?

23


Is the triangle acute right or obtuse if it measures 23 degrees and 67 degrees and 90 degrees?

It is a right angle triangle.


If angle A is 23 degrees and side b is 32 find side c?

I'm going to assume that side "c" is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.... you would take the sin(23) = 32/c sin (23) = .391 so.... .391 = 32/c Solving for c gives you approximately c = 81.8


How do you find the length of the side of a right triangle?

You must have at least two of the side lengths. You calculate using the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2+ b^2= c^2 (assuming a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse (longest side))). Ex. a=3 b=4 c=? 3^2= 9. 4^2=16. 9+16= 25. The square root of 25= 5; The hypotenuse
