History [edit]. In 1938, polytetrafluoroethylene (DuPont brand name Teflon) was discovered by accident by a recently hired DuPont Ph.D., Roy J. Plunkett. While working with tetrafluoroethylene gas, he noticed that a previously-pressurized cylinder had no pressure remaining.
Triangle Sides Calculator. This calculator calculates for the length of one side of a right triangle given the length of the other two sides. A right triangle has two sides perpendicular to each other. Sides a and b are the perpendicular sides and side c is the hypothenuse. Enter the length of any two sides and leave the side to be calculated blank. Please check out also the Regular Triangle Calculator and the Irregular Triangle Calculator.
Right Triangles. A right triangle is a triangle where one of its angles is a right angle (i.e. 90Â°). The other two angles are acute angles. You may have noticed that the side opposite the right angle is always the triangle's longest side. It is called the hypotenuse of the triangle.The other two sides are called the legs.or example, in trigonometry and also in the Pythagorean Theorem. The lengths of the sides of a right triangle are related by the Pythagorean Theorem. There are also special right triangles where the sides are of certain fixed ratios. A right triangle can be isosceles if the two legs are equal in length.
