Hypotenuse of 5 and 5
Hypotenuse = √50 ≈ 7.071068
For a right triangle with legs 5 and 5, the hypotenuse c satisfies a² + b² = c²:
5² + 5² = 25 + 25 = 50, so c = √50 ≈ 7.071068 (5√2).

Frequently asked questions
What is the hypotenuse of a triangle with legs 5 and 5?
It is √50 ≈ 7.071068 (or 5√2 in simplified radical form). Using a² + b² = c²: 5² + 5² = 50.
Is 5, 5, … a Pythagorean triple?
No. The hypotenuse √50 is not a whole number, so 5 and 5 do not form a Pythagorean triple with an integer hypotenuse.
