Example Question #2 : How To Find The Perimeter Of A 45/45/90 Right Isosceles Triangle
What is the perimeter of a right isosceles triangle that has leg lengths of ?
Recall how to find the perimeter of a triangle:
Now, because this is a right isosceles triangle, we know the following:
From the information given in the question, we already have two of the sides needed. Now, recall the Pythagorean Theorem to find the third side of the triangle, the hypotenuse.
The Pythagorean Theorem can then be simplifed to the following equation:
Now, solve for since the question asks for the length of the hypotenuse.
Now, plug in the given value for to find the length of the hypotenuse.
Now that we have all three sides of the triangle, we can find the perimeter. Use a calculator and round to decimal places.
