Right triangle angle vertex to the midpoint of the hypotenuse. Also, the center of the circle that circumscribes a right triangle is the midpoint of the hypotenuse and its radius is one half the length of the hypotenuse. The following formulas hold for the medians of a right triangle: The median on the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the triangle into two isosceles triangles, because the median equals one-half the hypotenuse. The medians "m" and "m" from the legs satisfy In a right triangle, the Euler line contains the median on the hypotenuse—that is, it goes through both the right-angled vertex
Triangle is 1/2, which occurs when , , and the altitude of the triangle from the base of length "a" is equal to "a". The smallest possible ratio of the side of one inscribed square to the side of another in the same non-obtuse triangle is formula_98 Both of these extreme cases occur for the isosceles right triangle. From an interior point in a reference triangle, the nearest points on the three sides serve as the vertices of the pedal triangle of that point. If the interior point is the circumcenter of the reference triangle, the vertices of the pedal triangle
