Good to know: Uses a² + b² = c² to compute the missing side length, area and perimeter of right-angled triangles.
How to use it (step by step)
- 1Fill in the boxes: “Leg a (leave 0 if solving for a)”, “Leg b (leave 0 if solving for b)”, “Hypotenuse c (leave 0 if solving for c)”. Example numbers are already there so you can see how it works; replace them with yours.
- 2The result updates instantly as you type (on a phone it is below the boxes).
- 3The bold line is the main answer. Tap Copy next to any value to copy it.
Words to know
- Area / volume / perimeter
- Perimeter = distance around a shape. Area = the flat space inside it (m²). Volume = the space inside a 3D object (m³).
