- A right triangle or right-angled triangle, sometimes called an orthogonal triangle or rectangular triangle, is a triangle in which two sides are perpendicular forming a right angle (1⁄4 turn or 90 degrees).
- Wahkiakum County, Washington (Wikipedia)
Wahkiakum County (/wəˈkaɪ.əkʌm/) is a county located in the U.S. state of Washington. As of the 2020 census, the population was 4,422, making it one of the least populous counties in Washington. The county seat and only incorporated town is Cathlamet. The county was formed out of Cowlitz County in April 1854 and is named for Chief Wahkiakum (“Tall Timber”) of the Chinook, who is buried in the Pioneer Cemetery in Cathlamet.
- Acute triangle (Wikipedia)
An acute triangle (or acute-angled triangle) is a triangle with three acute angles (less than 90°).
- Obtuse triangle (Wikipedia)
An obtuse triangle (or obtuse-angled triangle) is a triangle with one obtuse angle (greater than 90°) and two acute angles. Since a triangle’s angles must sum to 180° in Euclidean geometry, no Euclidean triangle can have more than one obtuse angle.
- Cathetus (Wikipedia)
In a right triangle, a cathetus (originally from the Greek word Κάθετος; plural: catheti), commonly known as a leg, is either of the sides that are adjacent to the right angle. It is occasionally called a “side about the right angle”. The side opposite the right angle is the hypotenuse. In the context of the hypotenuse, the catheti are sometimes referred to simply as “the other two sides”.
- Hypotenuse (Wikipedia)
In geometry, a hypotenuse is the side of a right triangle opposite the right angle. It is the longest side of any such triangle; the two other shorter sides of such a triangle are called catheti or legs. The length of the hypotenuse can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two legs. Mathematically, this can be written as 𝑎^2 + 𝑏^2 = 𝑐^2, where a is the length of one leg, b is the length of another leg, and c is the length of the hypotenuse.
- Pythagorean theorem (Wikipedia)
In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem or Pythagoras’ theorem is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry between the three sides of a right triangle. It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides.
