Question

How do I solve special right triangles?

Answer 1

Answer:

2*sqrt2

Step-by-step explanation:

In right isosceles triangles, the ratios of the sides are:

1:1:sqrt(2)

1=the legs, and sqrt2 being the hypotenuse.

So, in this problem, we can simply divide the hypotenuse by sqrt2 to find the legs.

2*sqrt6/sqrt2=2*sqrt3

Therefore, the lengths of the legs are 2*sqrt2
