Given the two legs of a right triangle (legs a and b), you can calculate the hypotenuse (c); or, if you're given the hypotenuse (c) and a leg (either a or b), you can find the other leg of the right triangle.A corollary of the theorem is that in any right triangle, the hypotenuse is greater than any one of the legs, but less than the sum of them.  Examples - Pythagoras' TriangleExample 1:If one leg of a right triangle is 3 inches and the other leg is 4, what's the length of the hypotenuse? You can enter into the calculator Leg a = 3 Leg b = 4 and you get Hypotenuse c = 5 Example 2: If the hypotenuse of a triangle is 10 ft and a leg is 6 ft, how long is the other leg of the triangle? You can enter Hypotenuse c = 10 Leg a = 6 and you get Leg b = 8 |
