What is a 45 45 90 triangle?
The 45 45 45 90 triangle is a right-angled isosceles triangle with two equal sides. Since its third side is not equal with the others, it's called the hypotenuse.
What is a right triangle?
In geometry, a right triangle is a triangle with one right angle. Right triangles are the most common shapes in the world and are found in everyday life, from the shapes of houses to the design of toys. Right triangles are also the basic shapes used to describe systems of coordinates.
How does right triangle calculator work?
Right triangle calculator is a simple app that helps you solve right triangles quickly and easily. It includes a diagram of a right triangle, as well as instructions on how to solve it. So if you’re ever faced with a problem involving a right triangle, you can use the right triangle calculator to get your answer quickly and easily.
45-45-90 Triangle is a special kind of triangle
The sides of 45-45-90-degree triangles have a unique ratio. For instance, the two legs are the same length, and the hypotenuse equals that length times the square root of 2.
What are the ratios of a 45 45 90 triangle?
45 45 90 triangle is the simplest of right-angle triangles, and the ratios of the length of sides are 1:1:sqrt(2).
How to solve a 45 45 90 triangle?
Solving 45 45 90 triangles is the simplest right-sided triangle to solve.
You simply apply Pythagorean theorem as follows:
a = first side length
b = second side length (equals to first side)
c = hypotenuse
Pythagorean formula:
a² + b² = c²
c = √(2a²) = a√2
A = Area
A = a²/2
p = Perimeter
a + b + c
or
2a + c (as a = b)
Does the Pythagorean theorem work for 45 45 90 triangles?
The Pythagorean theorem states the relation of the hypotenuse to lengths of the sides on a right-angle triangle. Since 45 45 90 triangle is a right angle triangle, the Pythagorean theorem can be applied to solving measurements.
For 45 45 90 triangles, usage of the Pythagorean theorem is particularly easy, given that the sides have equal length.
Can a right-angled triangle have equal sides?
A right triangle can't have all three sides equal, as one has to be 90 degrees to be equal. However, it can have its two non-hypotenuse sides equal in length.
What is the Pythagorean theorem?
The Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the square roots of a right triangle is equal or better than the square on the hypotenuse. It is commonly associated with Greek mathematician Pythagoras. However, it is not known that he was aware of the theorem.
According to historian Iamblichus, Pythagoras was first introduced to math by Thales of Miletus and Anaximander, his pupil. He traveled to Egypt around 535 BCE, was captured during an invasion of Persia and may have visited India. It is also known that he founded a school in Italy.
