Because if the shorter leg was shorter than the longer leg was long, then the longer leg wouldn't be longer than the shorter leg is short. The short leg would be the longer one rather than the long one being the short one.
.The hypotenuse is twice as long as the shorter leg The longer leg is twice as long as the shorter leg.
No.
If it is a 45-45-90 triangle, then divide the hypotenuse by the square root of 2. If it is a 30-60-90 triangle, then the shorter leg would be the hypotenuse divided by 2. And the longer leg would be the the shorter leg multiplied by the square root of 3.
Longer. 362mm equals 36.2cm
5.91 m.
The length of the longer leg of a right triangle is 3ftmore than three times the length of the shorter leg. The length of the hypotenuse is 4ftmore than three times the length of the shorter leg. Find the side lengths of the triangle.
.The hypotenuse is twice as long as the shorter leg The longer leg is twice as long as the shorter leg.
The shorter leg is 9 feet long
The shorter leg is 6 feet long
If you have the shorter legs length, then for the hypotenuse, just multiply the shorter leg by 2. For the longer leg, multiply the shorter leg by the square root of 3.
The hypotenuse is twice as long as the shorter leg AND The longer leg is 3 times as long as the shorter leg.
Long leg Jack's get to be about 20 inches or shorter on all fours and no longer than about 14 inches long. The short leg Jacks get to be about 14 inches or shorter on all fours and no longer than about 12 inches long
The difference between the shorter leg and the longer leg is 60ft. In the model, this distance is only 4in. Multiply 60 by 12 to get the difference in inches, 720in Divide 720 by 4 to find that the model is 180 times smaller than the real thing. Multiply the shorter leg by 12 to convert it into inches, 75*12=900 Divide 900 by 180 and you will have the length of the shorter leg of the model, 5in.
Short leg is 6 feet.
the longer leg is root 3 times as long as the shorter leg, and the hypotenuse is twice as long as the shorter leg.
Simple aerodynamics: the shorter leg of the "V" is upwind & the longer side is downwind. Usually.
To solve a 30-60-90 triangle, you need to know the length of one side. The hypotenuse is twice as long as the shortest leg (the side opposite the 30 angle) The longer leg (opposite the 60 angle) is the length of the shorter leg times the square root of 3. So in summary: If you know the hypotenuse, divide it by 2 to find the shorter leg, and multiply that times the square root of 3 to find the longer leg. If you know the longer leg, divide it by the square root of 3 to find the shorter leg, then multiply that by 2 to find the hypotenuse. If you know the shorter leg, multiply it by 2 to find the hypotenuse. Multiply the shorter leg length by the square root of 3 to find the longer leg.
