An isosceles right triangle has two sides of equal length (the legs).
\n" ); document.write( "a = 11
\n" ); document.write( "b = 11
\n" ); document.write( "\"a%5E2+%2B+b%5E2+=+c%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%28121+%2B+121%29+=+c\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"sqrt%28242%29+=+c+=+11%2Asqrt%282%29\"
