How do you find the side of a right triangle with the angle measurements?

You can't, if you only know the angles. There are an infinite number of right triangles
of all sizes, that all have the same set of angles. In order to find the length of any side,
you must know at least the length of one side, in addition to the angles on both ends
of the known side.

How do you find a missing dimension for a right angle triangle?
In a right triangle, all the angle measurements together add up to be 180 degrees. And since it is a right triangle, one of the three angles is 90 degrees so if you are given one of the angles other than the right angle's measurements, you can find the angle measurements. Here's an example: There is a right triangle. One angle measures to be 45 degrees. What is the missing angle measure? Well we know that one angle must be 90 degrees and the other (as we were told) is 45 degrees. 90+45=135 and we know that a right triangle=180 degrees total and 180-135= 45. The missing angle is equal to 45 degrees! hope this makes sense and it helped.

How do you find the height and length of a triangle?
I'm not sure what you are asking, so I may not be answering your question, but I'll try to the best of my ability.This is only for RIGHT TRIANGLESGiven a right triangle and the angle measurements besides the 90 degree angle of the right angle are 30 and 60 degrees (the combined angle measurements of a triangle always equal 180 degrees), the base is x, the height is xsqrt3, and the hypotenuse (or the longest side opposite the height) is 2x. This shortcut only works for right triangles with the other angle measurements 30 and 60 degrees.For example, you are given a triangle with the base=2 units. Using the shortcut, the height=2sqrt3 units. Then the hypotenuse=4 units.Given a right triangle and the angle measurements besides the 90 degree angle of the right angle are 45 and 45 degrees, the base is x, the height is also x, and the hypotenuse is xsqrt2. This shortcut only works for right triangles with both the other angle measurements equal to 45 degrees.For example, you are given a triangle with the base=2 units. The height is also 2 units. And finally, the hypotenuse=2sqrt2 units.*Another way to find the other side beside the shortcut is by using the Pythagorean Theorum (a2+b2=c2) if you are given the other two side measurements.*
How do i find the hypotenuse of a triangle?
It is the longest side of a right angle triangle.
How do you determine sine in a right triangle?
The sine of an angle in a right triangle is opposite/hypotenuse, where opposite is the only side that is not adjacent to the angle you want to find the sine of, and the hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle in the triangle. Just find opposite/hypotenuse.
