if 2 even sides of a triangle are 288 inches long how many inches long would the angle side be?

Answer 1

407.293505 Inches.

Answer 2

I don't fully understand the question - when you say the two "even" sides are 288 inches, does that mean each or together?

Anyway - you want the Triangle Inequality. It states that for a triangle of sides a, b and c, the sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side. That is, given any a and b,

a + b > c

This simply ensures that the two sides are long enough to span the third.

So - assuming that the 288 inches is the sum of the two "even" sides, the third side would have to be between 0 and 288 inches, noninclusive. In symbols,

0 < c < 288

If each side is 288 inches, then the same thing applies but with 576.

0 < c < 576

Answer 3

The question doesn't make sense. Some information is missing. You can't determine the length of the 3rd side with only knowing the length of the first 2 sides. The 3rd side can be anything between 0 and 576 inches.

Answer 4

Not enough information here. We would need to know one of the angles, or something else. The answer could be anywhere between 0 and 576 (exclusive). In other terms, if 'x' is the length of the third side, then:

0 < x < 576

Answer 5

Somewhere between 0 and 576 inches. You have to know the angle to compute the third side.

Answer 6

Pythagorean Theorem, person! Pay attention in class.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
288^2 + 288^2 = c^2
82944 + 82944 = c^2
square root it >>>>>165888 = c^2 <<< 407.3

But then again, my brain went numb from the summer holiday. I could be wrong.

Answer 7

144 inches in my opinion. But, it could be any number from the information given.

Answer 8
