Question

Given a 45-45-90 triangle with a hypotenuse of 3 cm solve for the other sides.

Answer 1

Answer:

Ok:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a 45-45-90 triangle, the ratio between the sides are 1 – 1 – $\sqrt{2}$. This can be proven by the pythagorean theorem. Therefore, if we let one of the sides by x, it means that x*$\sqrt{2\\}$ = 3 or x = $\frac{3}{\sqrt{2} }$.
