you can use pythagorean theorem formula:c² = a² + b²
you must have the values of the opposite side and adjacent side.
you may try below link for easy calculation

What are right angled scalene triangles?
Right triangles have one right angle. Scalene triangleIs have sides of unequal length. Right scalene triangles combine those aspects.
What is a hypotonuse?
In geometry, a hypotenuse is the longest side of a right-angled triangle, the side opposite the right angle.
Are all right-angled triangles congruent?
No.Examples:The right angled triangles {3, 4, 5} & {6, 8, 10} are similar;The right angled triangles {3, 4, 5} & {5, 12, 13} are just two right angled triangles.
Which congruence theorem guarantees that right angled triangles are congruent?
The checking for right-angled triangles is RHS:Right angle - they both haver a right angleHypotenuse - the hypotenuse of the triangles are congruentSide - a corresponding side of the triangles are congruent.
What are the 7 types of triangles?
The seven types of triangles are Isosceles, equilateral, scalene, equiangular, acute-angled, obtuse-angled, and right-angled
What are right angled scalene triangles?

Which triangles have a right angle?
Right angled triangles!

Why don't triangles have right angles?
Right angled triangles do!

Does a right-angled triangle have any equal sides?
A right-angled triangle can have equal sides, but does not have to. A right-angled triangle with two equal sides CANNOT be an equilateral triangle. A right-angled triangle cannot be an equilateral triangle.Divide a square along the diagonal, and you are left with two right-angled triangles with two sides of equal length.
What sort of triangles does pythagoras's rule work in?
Right angled triangles.
What triangles are formed when you draw a line down the middle of an equilateral triangle?
an icoceles triangle or a scalene triangle Actually you would get two right angled triangles. Isosceles triangles have two sides which are equal in length. A scalene triangle has all sides a different length and no right angles.
Will a pattern of right triangles and squares tessellate?
Yes. Consider the situation when: the right-angled triangles are also isosceles and the hypotenuse (longest side) of the triangles is equal to the side of the square. If you surround a square with four of right-angled triangles (the sides of the square being in contact with the hypotenuses of the triangles), you get a larger shape which is also a square. Taking this as a basic unit, you can make a tesselations. You can also make tessalations if you have two sets of squares, one with sides the same length of the hypotenuse of the triangles and one with sides the same length as the smaller sides of the triangles.
What does the pythagorean theorem apply to?
right angled triangles
