Theorem 8.5 45-45-90 Triangle Theorem • In a 45-45-90 triangle, both legs are congruent and the length of the hypotenuse is time the length of a leg. • Hypotenuse= x leg 45 45 90
Example #1 • Find the vale of each variable 90 9 45 45 x
Practice #1 • Find the value of each variable 45 45 90
Theorem 8.6 30-60-90 Triangle Theorem • In a 30-60-90 triangle, the length of the hypotenuse is twice the length of the shorter leg. The length of the longer leg is times the length of the shorter leg. • Hypotenuse= 2 x shorter leg • Longer leg= x shorter leg 30 90 60
