4th blog

Okay then!we already know that in a right triangle the angle a is 90 degree because it's a right angle. Also on angle b the angle decrease each time the side length change, and on angle c it increase each time triangle change too. Oh Yeah! we also talk about what was the angle if it wasn't a right triangle but it was the same pattern as the right triangle. so now we are going to talk about what will be the angle if the two side length are the same. do you think the pattern will be the same or will it change this time?
If you said its the same...you are...WRONG! well when the two side are the same the hypotenuse's size is bigger then the other two side by root of two and the two angle are the same, they are always 45 degree angle. so it is really a 45-45-90 triangle. Weird right! So if you don't believe me look at this.
1.41
Side 1Side 2HypotenuseAngle BAngle c
114545
222.834545
334.244545
445.664545
557.074545

There a clue I'm going to tell if you subtract two of the measurement in the hypotenuse row like 2.83-1.41 it equal to 1.42,and 1.42 or 1.41 also mean the same thing as root 2. so this prove that it is a 45-45-90 triangle when the side is the same length. so next investigation i will be doing is if two of the side side length are double of triple what will be the angles and hypotenuse?
