Hypotenuse of 2 and 2

Hypotenuse = √8 ≈ 2.828427

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

2² + 2² = 4 + 4 = 8, so c = √8 ≈ 2.828427 (2√2).

Frequently asked questions

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

It is √8 ≈ 2.828427 (or 2√2 in simplified radical form). Using a² + b² = c²: 2² + 2² = 8.

Is 2, 2, … a Pythagorean triple?

No. The hypotenuse √8 is not a whole number, so 2 and 2 do not form a Pythagorean triple with an integer hypotenuse.
