Question

45 cm
60 om
What is the length of the hypotenuse?
centimeters?

Answer 1

75cm
45squared times 60squared then take the square root of that answer

Answer 2

Answer:

Length of leg of triangle =

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a 45°-45°-90° triangle with hypotenuse measuring 18 cm.

Let us assume the following labeling of the diagram, as attached in the answer area.

The two angles here are equal to 45° so two sides of the triangle opposite to the equal angles will also be equal to each other i.e. it is an isosceles triangle.

i.e. The sides XY and YZ will be equal.

Let XY = YZ = x cm

It is known that in a right angled triangle, pythagorean theorem holds well.

As per pythagoream theorem:

Putting the values:

So, the length of leg of triangle =
