Question 83358: using the 45 45 90 triangle formula , if a traingle has a side of 8cm and a 45 degree angle, how would you solve for the other sides Answer by vertciel(183) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Well, you know the ratios are:
45/1 : 45/1 : 90/sqrt(2).
So the hypotenuse has the ratio of sqrt(2).
You would multiply the side of 8 cm with sqrt(2), and your hypotenuse would be 8√2.
