Geometry Points: The Pythagorean Theorem (Find a Missing Hypotenuse)

Please subscribe:    / @nickperich   To use the Pythagorean Theorem to find a missing hypotenuse of a right triangle, follow these steps: 1. Identify the right triangle: Make sure the triangle you are working with is a right triangle, which means it has one angle measuring 90 degrees. 2. Label the sides: Identify the two legs of the right triangle and label them as 'a' and 'b'. The hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle and is the side you want to find. 3. Write the Pythagorean Theorem: The Pythagorean Theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two legs (a and b). The equation is written as: a^2 + b^2 = c^2. 4. Substitute the known values: Substitute the lengths of the known legs into the Pythagorean Theorem equation. In this case, you will substitute the lengths of 'a' and 'b'. 5. Solve for the missing hypotenuse: Rearrange the equation to solve for the missing hypotenuse. If you're looking for the length of 'c', the equation becomes c^2 = a^2 + b^2. Take the square root of both sides to find the length of 'c'. 6. Simplify and calculate: Calculate the square root and simplify if necessary to find the length of the missing hypotenuse. By applying the Pythagorean Theorem, you can determine the length of a missing hypotenuse in a right triangle when the lengths of the two legs are known.
