Hypotenuse of 2 and 12

Hypotenuse = √148 ≈ 12.165525

For a right triangle with legs 2 and 12, the hypotenuse c satisfies a² + b² = c²:

2² + 12² = 4 + 144 = 148, so c = √148 ≈ 12.165525 (2√37).

Frequently asked questions

What is the hypotenuse of a triangle with legs 2 and 12?

It is √148 ≈ 12.165525 (or 2√37 in simplified radical form). Using a² + b² = c²: 2² + 12² = 148.

Is 2, 12, … a Pythagorean triple?

No. The hypotenuse √148 is not a whole number, so 2 and 12 do not form a Pythagorean triple with an integer hypotenuse.
