The legs of right triangle are equal, so

x²+x²=28²

2x²=784

x²=392

[tex]x = \sqrt{392} [/tex]

The length of each leg of an isosceles right angle triangle with the hypotenuse side of 28 cm is 14√2 cm

What is a right angle triangle?

A right angle triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees.

The sides can be found by using pythagoras theorem.

Therefore,

c²= a² + b²

where

  • c = hypotenuse
  • a and b are the other legs

Hence,

28² = x² + x²

28² = 2x²

784 = 2x²

x² = 784 / 2

x = √392

x  = 14√2 cm
