Right Isosceles Triangle

on 29 January 2016. Posted in Plane Geometry

Right isosceles triangle (a two-dimensional figure) has one side a right 90° interior angle and the other two angles are 45°.

Angle bisector of a right isosceles triangle is a line that splits an angle into two equal angles.
Circumcircle is a circle that passes through all the vertices of a two-dimensional figure.
Hypotenuse of a right isosceles triangle is the longest side or the side opposite the right angle.
Inscribed circle is the Iargest circle possible that can fit on the inside of a two-dimensional figure.
Median of a right isosceles triangle is a line segment from a vertex (coiner point) to the midpoint of the opposite side.
Semiperimeter is one half of the perimeter.
Side of a right triangle is one half of the perimeter.
Two sides are congruent.
3 edges
3 vertexs
a = opposite leg
b = adjacent leg
c = hypotenuse
Angles: ∠A, ∠B, ∠C
Height: \(h_a\), \(h_b\), \(h_c\)
Median: \(m_a\), \(m_b\), \(m_c\) - A line segment from a vertex (corner point) to the midpoint of the opposite side
Angle bisectors: \(t_a\), \(t_b\), \(t_c\) - A line that splits an angle into two equal angles
