Special Right Triangles

Geometry :A special triangle is a triangle with a 45/45/90 angle or a 30\60\90

angle it is used with A+B+C where you have the angle of either a+c or a+b

So the way it's solved is when you have either an angle with a 45/45/90 or a

30/60/90 and you try to find the solution of the two hypotenuse sides with one

angle

So you kinda do the sine and cosine of finding the hypotenuse ,opposite , and

adjacent but without actually typing in sine and cosine.

Example:

Okay so we have a 30/60/90 degree angle so we know that the hypotenuse is

twice as long as the shorter side that's going to be 2 then we have the longer leg

being three times as long as the shorter leg which well be the square root of 3

The Law Of Sines And Cosine

Is any given triangle,with a opp/hyp or a hyp/adj and you try to find the angles

and sides of the triangle using the law of sines and cosines.so the way it's

connected with the special right triangle is that for the right triangle you have a

30/60/90 angle or /a 45/45/90 so you have the opp/hyp and hyp/adj

Special right triangle are used in the real world in many different way;one of the

ways that the special right triangle is being used is with the fashion and design

industry.they are to build high heels that happen to have a right triangle it may

not be used in the same format as math in trying to solve for the side and angle

but it is used in a triangle having a side more longer than the other.
