What is the relationship between the hypotenuse and the short leg? ;)

anonymous · Answer

there the same length??

ryan123345 · Answer

no. the short leg is half the amount of the hypotenuse.

anonymous · Answer

ooo okay then the side across from it .....i guess the long leg is the same length??

ryan123345 · Answer

no. When you find the short leg which would be half of 132 you just multiply that by the square root of 3 and thats your answer :)
