The tip of a toy arrowhead shaped as an isosceles right triangle is sketched on a graph. the endpoints of one leg are (0,0) and (0,10) what is the length of the longest side of the tip?

Respuesta :

We need to find the length of the longest side of an arrowhead.

Length of the longest side of the tip is [tex]14.14\ \text{units}[/tex].

The length of one of the legs of the isosceles right triangle is 10 units.

Since, it is a isosceles right triangle, two sides will have equal lengths.

So, the other side of the triangle will also be 10 units and the angle between these two sides will be [tex]90^{\circ}[/tex].

So, the Pythagoras theorem can be used to find the third side which will be the longest.

[tex]h=\sqrt{10^2+10^2}=\sqrt{200}\\\Rightarrow h=10\sqrt{2}=14.14\ \text{units}[/tex]

The length of the longest side of the tip is [tex]14.14\ \text{units}[/tex].
