Triangle Calculator : Calculate the adjacent, opposite or hypotenuse values of a right angle by entering any two known values using the Pythagorean theorem
Triangle Calculator is a simple math tool that provides both students and casual users with the possibility of quickly calculating the sides of a right triangle using Pythagoras' theorem. It comes to the aid of those new to this theorem, as well as those who have just forgotten it.
No setup necessary, besides .NET Framework
The software utility's packed into a single .exe file that you can copy to the hard disk or external storage devices to run Triangle Calculator on any computer with as little effort as possible.It doesn't update the Windows registry with new entries or generate new files or folders without letting you know about it. To uninstall it, you just have to remove its file by performing a classical deletion task. On the other hand, you must have .NET Framework installed, otherwise it won't launch.
Determine the adjacent, opposite or hypotenuse values
Opting for a standard .NET Framework form that doesn't throw graphical elements into the mix, the application is clearly not looking to visually impress its users, preferring to focus on the task at hand.There are only three boxes available, for entering the adjacent, opposite and hypotenuse values of the right triangle. This isn't represented in a graph, however, which would've made the job easier for those who have trouble identifying the sides of the triangle correctly.Any of these three values can be determined by entering the other two known values and by clicking on the "Calculate" button. The answer is shown in orange text.
Evaluation and conclusion
It's quite evident that Triangle Calculator doesn't try to overwhelm its users with rich and complicated options. However, it serves its purposes and calculates the values of the right triangle's sides without delay. Unsurprisingly from this compact utility, CPU and memory usage was minimal in our evaluation.
