Question
- when the length of each leg is 1 unit, the ratio of the hypotenuse to the leg is: 1.4 3. measure the length of each leg and the hypotenuse of this triangle: ad = units ae = units de = units m∠ade = 45° m∠aed = 45°
Step1: Identify triangle type
It's a 45 - 45 - 90 right - triangle.
Step2: Recall side - length ratio
In a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle, if leg length is $a$, hypotenuse $c = a\sqrt{2}$. Here $a = 1$, so $c=\sqrt{2}$.
