The video tutorial explains the properties and side ratios of 30-60-90 and 45-45-90 triangles. It begins with a review of 30-60-90 triangles, detailing how the sides relate to each other. The tutorial then introduces 45-45-90 triangles, explaining that they are right isosceles triangles with equal legs. Using the Pythagorean theorem, the video derives the side ratios for 45-45-90 triangles, showing that the hypotenuse is the square root of 2 times the length of a leg. The video concludes with a comparison of the two triangle types and their respective side ratios.

What is the ratio of the sides in a 30-60-90 triangle if the shortest side is 1?

• 1:2:3

• 1:√3:2

• 1:1:√2

• 1:√2:3
