If we want to sketch a triangle with angle of 45-45-90 we know that it's a right triangle, because of the 90º angle
the we can use the trig relationships:
And:
By pytagoras:
Where l and L are the two legs, since the angles are equal, l and L are equal:
Then:
By pythagoras:
Then we know that the length og each side is √1 which is 1, and then added to the other leg, 1 + 1 = 2
By the angles 45º, 45º and 90º and one leg of length 1, the sides are 1, 1 and 2
