  2. Special right triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_right_triangle

    Then ABD is a 30°–60°–90° triangle with hypotenuse of length 2, and base BD of length 1. The fact that the remaining leg AD has length √ 3 follows immediately from the Pythagorean theorem. The 30°–60°–90° triangle is the only right triangle whose angles are in an arithmetic progression.

  3. Right triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_triangle

    A right triangle ABC with its right angle at C, hypotenuse c, and legs a and b,. A right triangle or right-angled triangle, sometimes called an orthogonal triangle or rectangular triangle, is a triangle in which two sides are perpendicular, forming a right angle (1 ⁄ 4 turn or 90 degrees).

  4. Hypotenuse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypotenuse

    A right triangle with the hypotenuse c. In a right triangle, the hypotenuse is the side that is opposite the right angle, while the other two sides are called the catheti or legs. [7] The length of the hypotenuse can be calculated using the square root function implied by the Pythagorean theorem. It states that the sum of the two legs squared ...

  5. Ailles rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ailles_rectangle

    Drawing a line connecting the original triangles' top corners creates a 45°–45°–90° triangle between the two, with sides of lengths 2, 2, and (by the Pythagorean theorem) . The remaining space at the top of the rectangle is a right triangle with acute angles of 15° and 75° and sides of 3 − 1 {\displaystyle {\sqrt {3}}-1} , 3 + 1 ...

  6. Pythagorean theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_theorem

    In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem or Pythagoras' theorem is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry between the three sides of a right triangle.It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides.

  7. File:30° 60° 90° Special Right Triangle.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:30°_60°_90°_Special...

    English: This file illustrates the special right triangle of angles 30°, 60° and 90°. A black square represents the borders of the file. Inside, the triangle is depicted with all of its special angles. The right angle is symbolized by a small square, and its measure, 90°, is written to the right and above it.

  8. Pythagorean addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_addition

    In mathematics, Pythagorean addition is a binary operation on the real numbers that computes the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle, given its two sides.According to the Pythagorean theorem, for a triangle with sides and , this length can be calculated as = +, where denotes the Pythagorean addition operation.

  9. Pythagorean prime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_prime

    The formulas show how to transform any right triangle with integer legs into another right triangle with integer legs whose hypotenuse is the square of the first triangle's hypotenuse. A Pythagorean prime is a prime number of the form 4 n + 1 {\displaystyle 4n+1} .
