The length of the smallest side (or leg) of a right triangle is 6. The lengths of the other two sides are consecutive even integers. Use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the smaller of the two missing sides (the second leg).

Answers

Answer 1

The lengths of the three sides of the right Triangle are 6, 8, and 10.

The smallest side (or leg) of the right triangle is 6. Let's call the other two sides x and x+2, where x is the smaller of the two consecutive even integers.

According to the Pythagorean theorem, in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the two legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle.

Applying the Pythagorean theorem, we can set up the equation:

6^2 + x^2 = (x+2)^2

Expanding the equation, we have:

36 + x^2 = x^2 + 4x + 4

Simplifying the equation, we can cancel out the x^2 terms:

36 = 4x + 4

Subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation:

32 = 4x

Dividing both sides of the equation by 4:

8 = x

So, the smaller of the two missing sides (the second leg) is 8

the length of the other missing side (the hypotenuse), we can substitute the value of x back into the equation:

x+2 = 8+2 = 10

Therefore, the lengths of the three sides of the right triangle are 6, 8, and 10.

If so, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

Base angle of an isosceles triangle is 15 degrees more than its vertical angle.

To find:

The measure of each angle of the triangle.

Solution:

Let x be the vertical angle. Then,

One base angle = x+15 degrees

We know that base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal.

Another base angle = x+15 degrees

Now, the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180 degrees by the angle sum property.

[tex]x^\circ+(x+15)^\circ+(x+15)^\circ=180^\circ[/tex]          (Angle sum property)

[tex](3x+30)^\circ=180^\circ[/tex]

[tex]3x+30=180[/tex]

[tex]3x=180-30[/tex]

[tex]3x=150[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3.

[tex]x=\dfrac{150}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=50[/tex]

The measure of base angles is

[tex](x+15)^\circ=(50+15)^\circ[/tex]

[tex](x+15)^\circ=65^\circ[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of angles are 50°, 65° and 65°.
