The right triangle calculator finds the missing area, angle, leg, hypotenuse and height of a triangle. The calculator also provides steps on how to solve the most important right triangles: the 30-60-90 triangle and the 45-45-90 triangle.
solution
Leg $ a = 20 $
Hypotenuse $ c = 20 \sqrt{ 2 } $
explanation
Step 1: Find leg a
From the diagram above we can see that $ a = b = 20 $.
Step 2: Find hypotenuse c.
From the diagram above we can see that $ c = \sqrt{2} \cdot a $. In this example we have:
$$ c = \sqrt{2} \cdot 20 = 20 \sqrt{ 2 } $$
