What is a right-angle triangle?

It is a type of triangle in which one angle is 90 degrees and it follows the Pythagoras theorem and we can use the trigonometry function. The Pythagoras is the sum of the square of two sides is equal to the square of the longest side.

A camper attaches a rope from the top of her tent, 4 feet above the ground, to give it more support. If the rope is 8 feet long.

Then the length of the stake needs to be from the middle of her tent will be

We have

P = 4 ft

H = 8 ft

Then the base is given by the Pythagoras theorem.

B² = H² - P²

B² = 8² - 4²

B² = 64 - 16

B² = 48

B = 6.9 ft
