C^2=A^2+B^2. Pythagorean theorem. Note that this is only true for Right triangles (one of the angles is 90°). Side C is the longest side and is opposite the 90° angle. For any other triangle, you need at least 3 pieces of information (2 sides and an angle, or 2 angles and a side) to find the other parts of the triangle. In a right triangle, if you know 2 sides, then you have 3 pieces of info (one of the angles is 90°).
For non-right triangles, you can use the Law of Sines or Law of Cosines to solve for the unknown information.

Does a scalene triangle has the sides of the same length?
The definition of a scalene triangle is: A three-sided figure (triangle) with no two sides equal.
What is the difference between an isosceles triangle and a trapezium?
One is a three-sided figure with two sides of equal length; the other is a four-sided figure with one pair of parallel sides.
What is the name of a three- sided figure with sides that has no equal in length?
A scalene triangle
How many equal sides does and an isosceles triangle have?
An isosceles triangle has 2 sides of equal length. The other two types are scalene (with no sides of equal length) and equilateral (with all sides equal in length)
How do you find the length of a right triangle with only 2 sides given?
Do the pythagorean theorem. Its A squared plus B squared=C squared. Do that to figure out the other side of the triangle

A scalene triangle
What is a four sided figure with two pairs of adjacent sides of equal length with opposite sides not equal in length?
I Am pretty sure it's a triangle(: No it's not a triangle has 3 sides i think its a trapezoid.
What is a triangle with unequal sides?
If no two sides of a triangle have the same length, then the figure is called a "scalene" triangle. Some (but not all) scalene triangles are also right triangles.
What two-dimensional figure has three sides. two of which are the same length?
