Question

the two legs of a right triangle are equal and the square of its hypotense is 50. Find the length of each leg

Answer 1

let length of each leg = x
therefore using PGT we have
50 = x² + x²
50= 2x²
25 = x²
x = 5

hence length of each leg of the right triangle is 5 units.


hope this is useful..... and if any other queries stays then....comment

Answer 2

by applying Pythagoras theorem
we get
y.y+y.y=50
if we solve this we get
y=5
here"."represents multiplication
and y is side of triangle.
