Get the 3rd side of right angled triangle from 2 sidesΒΆ
Get the third side of right angled triangle from two given sides.
def pythagoras(opposite_side,adjacent_side,hypotenuse):
if opposite_side == str("x"):
return ("Opposite = " + str(((hypotenuse**2) - (adjacent_side**2))**0.5))
elif adjacent_side == str("x"):
return ("Adjacent = " + str(((hypotenuse**2) - (opposite_side**2))**0.5))
elif hypotenuse == str("x"):
return ("Hypotenuse = " + str(((opposite_side**2) + (adjacent_side**2))**0.5))
else:
return "You know the answer!"
print(pythagoras(3, 4, 'x'))
print(pythagoras(3, 'x', 5))
print(pythagoras('x', 4, 5))
print(pythagoras(3, 4, 5))
Output:
Hypotenuse = 5.0
Adjacent = 4.0
Opposite = 3.0
You know the answer!
