Right angles are always 90 degrees, (or pi/2 radians if you're into such things) so there isnt really anything to calculate.

You can check that a triangle contains a right angle by verifying it obeys pythagoras theorem,

x2 + y2 = h2 where x and y are the lengths of the two other sides and h is the length of the longest side (the hypotenuse).

If this is the case, the right angle is the one opposite that side, if not, the triangle doesn't contain a right angle.

How do you calculate the height of right triangle given the base and adjacent angle?

Height will be h=base*tan(angle).


How do you calculate the height of right triangle given the base?

If you're only given the base, then you can't calculate the other leg. If you have any one of the following, then you can calculate all of the parts of the triangle: -- length of the other leg -- length of the hypotenuse -- size of either acute angle

How to measure length of two sides height diagonal of a right angle triangle where all degrees of angle and length of base given?

The answer depends on whether the base is one of the legs of the right angle or the hypotenuse. Also, a triangle cannot have a diagonal.


How you solve parallelogram?

Please clarify what data is given, and what you want to solve for. To calculate the perimeter, add the length of all four sides. To calculate the area, the formula is basically same as for a rectangle: length x height; however, the height must be measured perpendicular to the side which you use as "length".


How do you find a circumference of an arc with basis of its chord length and given height?

you need to know the formula the arc length is equal to the radius times the angle made by the length of arc s = r(theta) s=arc length r=radius theta=angle


How is the width of a box calculated?

To calculate the width of a box, or cube, you need to use the following formula: W = (V) / (LxH) given that (V= volume, L= length, W= width, H= height) and volume, height and length measurements are already given.
