How do you find a right isosceles triangles side using angle measures? - Answers

You use the Formula A(2) +B(2) = C(2)C is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is the largest side which is always opposite of the right angle. A and B are sides of and it does not matter what side you use as a or bFor Example: the sides are 5 12 and 6.|\5| \ 12|__\6a b c5(5) + 6(6) = 12(12) = 14425 36 61Since 144 does not equal 61 it is NOT a right triangle. If they were equal the triangle would be a right triangle.|\4| \ 5|__\3a b c3(3) + 4(4) = 5(5) = 259 16 25Since 25 Equals 25 The Triangle IS a Right Triangle.If it gives you Angle The Hypotenuse (C) and one side(A) The Equation would look like this:C(2) - A(2) = B(2)5(5) - 3(3) = 4(4)25 - 9 = 16Hope It Helped; and sorry for all that to read!
