A right triangle can be considered as a special type
because the relationship of its sides can be described using the hypotenuse
formula:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
or
c^2 = x^2 + y^2
where,
c is the hypotenuse of the triangle and is the side
opposite to the 90° angle
while a and b are the sides adjacent to the 90° angle
In the problem statement, we are given that one of the
side has a measure of 2 = x, while the hypotenuse is 5 = c, therefore calculating
for y:
y^2 = c^2 – x^2
y^2 = 5^2 – 2^2
y^2 = 21
y = 4.58
The natural number is the number before the decimal.
Therefore the answer is:
y = 4
Answer:
Decimals can be written in fraction form. To convert a decimal to a fraction, place the decimal number over its place value. For example, in 0.6, the six is in the tenths place, so we place 6 over 10 to create the equivalent fraction, 6/10. If needed, simplify the fraction.
3/5 3/4 7/8
As the higher the denominator and the higher the numerator or 'parts filled', the greater the fraction.
Check the picture below.
now, you can pretty much count the units off the grid for the segments ST and RU, so each is 7 units long, and are parallel, meaning that the other two segments are also parallel, and therefore the same length each.
so we can just find the length for hmmmm say SR, since SR = TU, TU is the same length,

sum all segments up, and that's perimeter.
To find the hypotenuse in a 45-45-90 triangle multiply the legs by

So...
The leg is 12 the hypotenuse is 12
