Back

5√2.

Front

What is the formula to find the length of the other leg in a 45-45-90 triangle?

Back

The length of the other leg is the same as the first leg.

Front

If one leg of a 45-45-90 triangle is 4, what are the lengths of the sides?

Back

Legs: 4, Hypotenuse: 4√2.

Front

What is the value of the hypotenuse if the leg measures 10?

Back

10√2.

Front

In a 45-45-90 triangle, what is the ratio of the lengths of the legs to the hypotenuse?
