Question

A side of an isosceles right angled triangle is 4 Find its hypotenuse

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 4√2 ( hypotenuse)

Step-by-step explanation:

If one of the sides of an isosceles right-angled triangle is 4, the other side of the triangle should also be 4, because the condition of an isosceles triangle are two sides must be equal in length.

so, by the Pythagoras theorem,

For a right-angled triangle, the hypotenuse=√4^2+4^2

√16+16 = √32

= √16×2 = 4√2.

( √4^2 × 2 = √32).
