Pythagoras theorem: leg 1 squared + leg 2 squared = hypotenuse squared
In the diagram, the triangle has angles 90 and 45. So the other angle in the triangle must be 45 degrees as well. (180 - 90 -45 = 45)
This means it is an isosceles triangle (since two angles are the same), so the two legs have the same length.
So we can say that length of leg1 = x, and the length of leg2 also equals x
Now let's use pythagoras' theorem:
leg1 = x
leg2 = x
hypotenuse = 16
x^2 + x^2 = 16^2
2x^2 = 16^2
2x^2 = 256
x^2 = 128
x = √(128)
x = 8√2
Answer:
√23
Step-by-step explanation:
When you are given two side lengths of a right triangle, you use the Pythagorean theorem to find the third side: a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse (the longest side).
All you have to do is plug the given information in:
Remember, 13 is the hypotenuse for this triangle.
12² + b² = 13²
Simplify:
144 + b² = 169
Subtract 144 from both sides:
b² = 169-144
b² = 23
Square root both sides:
b = √23
And that's your answer!
