Can you have an angle bigger than 90 degrees in a right triangle?
No
In an isosceles right triangle, what process can you do to find the sides given just the hypotenuse?
Divide the hypotenuse by the square root of two or multiply it by √2/2.
If a right triangle has side lengths of 4,4, 4√2, what type of right triangle it is.
Isosceles Right Triangle (45-45-90)
In ▲ 30-60-90, what angle is opposite to the longer side?

In ▲30-60-90, what do you call the side that is opposite to 30 degrees?
Shorter Side
Angle opposite to hypotenuse.
90 degrees
Can a triangle be both a 30-60-90 and an isosceles right triangle?
No
What theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse of a right ▲ is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of its 2 legs.
Pythagorean Theorem
If an isosceles right triangle has a hypotenuse of 4√2, then what is the length of one of the legs of that triangle.
4
If the shortest leg of 30-60-90 triangle is 5, what is the sum of the length of the hypotenuse and the long leg? Round to the nearest tenth.
