Question

if you are examining a triangle with given measurements for one leg and the hypotnuse,how will you determine the measure of the unknown leg?

Answer 1

We will apply the Pythagoras theorem to find the measure of the unknown leg in a triangle when one leg and the hypotenuse are provided dimensions.

What is the definition of a right-angle triangle?

It's a form of a triangle with one 90-degree angle that follows Pythagoras' theorem and can be solved using the trigonometric function.

According to Pythagoras, the sum of the squares of two sides equals the square of the longest side.

$\rm h^2 = p^2+ b^2$

Where,

h is the hypotenuse

p is the perpendicular

b is the base

If any of the two is given the third side will be obtained using the  Pythagoras theorem.

In a triangle with given measurements for one leg and the hypotenuse, we will determine the measure of the unknown leg by the Pythagoras theorem.

Hence we willl apply the pythogorous theorem for finding the unknown side.
