- Find the length of the hypotenuse. Our goal is to solve for the length of the hypotenuse. We are given the lengths of the two legs. We know two sides out of the three!
- Find the length of the leg. Just by looking at the figure above, we know that we have enough information to solve for the missing side. The reason is the measure of the two sides are given and the other leg is left as unknown.
- Do the sides [latex]17[/latex], [latex]15[/latex] and [latex]8[/latex] form a right triangle? If so, which sides are the legs and the hypotenuse?
- A rectangle has a length of [latex]8[/latex] meters and a width of [latex]6[/latex] meters. What is the length of the diagonal of the rectangle?
