If the longest side of a triangle is length 4 and the inside angle is twenty two and a half degrees how long are the other two sides?
the length of the other two sides is variable.
When you are using distance formula you are calculating the length of a right triangle?
Yes when finding the lengths of lines on the Cartesian plane
Is length horizontal or diagonal?
A good definition might be the measurement of the longest horizontal distance of an object (x). Width would be the shorter horizontal distance (y)
What is the length of the longest side of a triangle that has vertices at -3 -2 2 -2 and -3 -7?
The length of the longest side of the triangle can be found by calculating the distance between the two furthest vertices. In this case, it is the distance between (-3,-2) and (-3,-7), which is 5 units. Therefore, the length of the longest side of the triangle is 5 units.
What is the length of the longest side in an isosceles right triangle?
The longest length would be the hypotenuse. You can use SOHCAHTOA to find the length.
How do i find the Ratio of the shortest to the longest side of a triangle?
You divide the length of the shortest side by the length of the longest side.
When you form a right triangle connecting two given points the distance between the points in the length of what?
hypotenuese
When you use the distance formula you are calculating the length of a right triangle which goes between two given points?
Yes, the Euclidean distance is the length of the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle whose other two vertices are at the two given points.
what- The length of the shortest side of the scalene triangle is 5 inches.Find the length of the longest side?
9 in.
What is the length of the longest side of the triangle whose vertices have coordinates A(-1-2) B(42) and C(-24)?
Just calculate the length of the three sides using the distance formula, then compare which is largest.
What is the distance between the two points 2 3 and 3 0?
We use the distance formula to find the distance between the points (2,3) and (3,0) The distance is Square root of ((3^2+(2-3)^2)= Square root of (9+1) Which is square root of 10. This is the distance. This works because if we draw a triangle with one side having length 3 and another side having length 1, we have a right triangle. THis is because the side of length 3 is vertical and the side of length 1 is horizontal. Now the hypotenuse of this triangle is the line between the two points in question. So the length of the hypotenuse is the distance between the points. However, the pythagorean theorem tells us this distance is the square root of 1^2 +3^2=Square root of 10
Janice examines the given triangle and estimates that the longest side has a length of 25 units and 8213if it is a right triangle. How does her estimate compare to the actual length?
36
Is this statement true or falseIf the length of the longest side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle?
false
What is the length of the hypotenuseif they are 3 4 5?
The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle.
