A right triangle with the two legs (and their corresponding angles) equal. An isosceles right triangle therefore has angles of ,
, and
. For an isosceles right triangle with side lengths
,
the hypotenuse has length
. The hypotenuse length
for
is called Pythagoras's constant.
Polyforms made up of isosceles right triangles are called polyaboloes.
