If the square of the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 128 cm^2, find the length of each side.
----------------------------------------------------------
 +  = 128,  = 128,  =  = 64, x =  = 8 cm.
----------------------------------------------------------
 +  = 128,  = 128,  =  = 64, x =  = 8 cm.

Answer:
8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the equal sides of the triangle be x
(since it is a isosceles triangle)
We can use use Pythagoras theorem for solving this problem.
(hypotenuse)^2 = (base)^2 + (perpendicular)^2
128 = x^2 + x^2 (since it is a isosceles triangle)
128 = 2x ^2
128/2 = x^2
x^2 = 64
x = 8 cm
I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU :)
