The hypotenuse of a 45°-45°-90° triangle measures units. what is the length of one leg of the triangle? 7 units units 14 units units

7 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles right triangle, the hypotenuse is √2 times the leg length. Then ...

... 7√2 = leg·√2

... 7 = leg . . . . . . . divide both sides by √2

Comment on isosceles right triangle

If the legs are both length 1, the Pythagorean theorem tells us ...

... hypotenuse² = 1² +1² = 2

... hypotenuse = √2 . . . . . . . . . square root both sides of the equation

This result can be scaled by any multiplier you like. In this problem, the scale factor is 7, making the legs 7 and the hypotenuse 7√2.

the answer is 14ft

step-by-step explanation:

good luck!
