What is the hypotenuse - How to calculate the hypotenuse of a right triangle - Math
The hypotenuse of a right triangle is the side opposite the right angle. Two sides adjacent to a right angle are two lateral sides, also known as right angles.
The hypotenuse is always greater than the two sides of the right angle.
The center of the circumcircle passing through the three vertices of a right triangle is the midpoint of the hypotenuse.
For example:
Consider right triangle ABC, Right angled at A.
- Sides AB and AC are right-angled sides.
- Side BC is opposite right angle A and is called hypotenuse.
- Side BC is always larger than AC and larger than AC.
We have: The length of the median drawn from the vertex of the right angle is half of the hypotenuse.
What is an Isosceles Triangle?
A triangle ABC is said to be isosceles right triangle when: AB equals AC.
Calculating the hypotenuse of a right triangle:
Method 1: Use the Pythagorean theorem: The hypotenuse is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the two sides.
Method 2: Use the Law of Sin to calculate the hypotenuse
Method 3: Using the Cos . Formula
The formula for calculating the hypotenuse in an isosceles right triangle:
The hypotenuse in an isosceles right triangle = Square root 2 times the side
