Algebra.Com's Answer #16375 by askmemath(368)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The moment you see 90degrees in a Triangle, you must realise that it is a Right Angled Triangle and therefore it follows Pythagoras' Theorem \n" ); document.write( "This theorem states that the Square of the Hypotenuse of a Right Angled Triangle is equal to the Sum of Square of the other 2 sides \n" ); document.write( "You have the Hypotenuse as 41 \n" ); document.write( "Since it is a an Isosceles Triangle, the other two sides are equal let's say X \n" ); document.write( "Then by Pythagoras' Theorem \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Even the 30-60-90 triangle will follow the same rule. However since the sides are not equal you will have to find them out using Sine/Cosine/Tan etc \n" ); document.write( " |
