First, a triangle, by definition, must have exactly 3 sides, so the last part of the question is pointless.
Finding the length of a side depends on what information you do have: two sides and the included angle, one side and two angles, hypotenuse and an angle, hypotenuse and another side. Then there are some combinations involving the lengths of sides and medians or altitudes that will allow you to work out a missing side.

How do you find the side of an isosceles triangle?
An isosceles triangle has 3 sides 2 of which are equal in length
How can you find sides of a triangle if one of the side and perimeter is given?
That depends on what type of triangle is if the side given is equal to the perimeter divided by 3 then it is an equilateral triangle.
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle if one side is 3?
it depends on the triangle.if it is a "pure" triangle (symetrical on all sides) then the permeter is 9
What is a perimeter triangle side?
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its 3 sides
What is the meaning Equal side of the triangle?
All triangles have 3 sides and an isosceles triangle has 2 equal sides whereas an equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides.
How do you find the side of an isosceles triangle?
An isosceles triangle has 3 sides 2 of which are equal in length
What does scale factor between two similar figures tell you about their side lenghts?
Say you had Triangle A. Triangle A has these sides: Side 1: 9 Side 2: 6 Side 3: 6 Pretend the scale factor indicates Triangle A is 3 times the size of Triangle B, whose sides are currently unknown. To find the sides of triangle B, simply divide all the sides of triangle A by 3. You should get: Triangle B Side 1: 3 Side 2: 2 Side 3: 2 I hope that somewhat answers your question! ^-^
How can you find sides of a triangle if one of the side and perimeter is given?
That depends on what type of triangle is if the side given is equal to the perimeter divided by 3 then it is an equilateral triangle.
Does a triangle must have 3 equal sides?
no, a triangle can have one long side or two as long as it has 3 sides.
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle if one side is 3?
it depends on the triangle.if it is a "pure" triangle (symetrical on all sides) then the permeter is 9
What is the meaning Equal side of the triangle?
All triangles have 3 sides and an isosceles triangle has 2 equal sides whereas an equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides.
What is a perimeter triangle side?
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its 3 sides
What shape has 3 sides and 1 perpendicular side?
triangle.
How do you find the length of third side of a triangle given two sides and permeter of the triangle?
Subtract the two side lengths from the perimeter. The perimeter of a triangle is just the length of the 3 sides added together. Eg. Q: A triangle has a perimeter of 20 m. One side is 5m and another is 10m. How long is the 3rd side? A: Perimeter - side 1 - side 2 = side 3 Side 3 = 20 - 5 - 10 = 5 m
Is a base of a triangle a side?
Yes, a triangle has 3 sides, and the base is one of those.
What is the difference between an equilateral triangle and scalene triangle?
Equilateral triangles have all the same side lengths and scalene triangles have no similar side lengthsAn equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides whereas a scalene triangle has 3 unequal sides
What triangle has no sides?
a triangle has 3 sides? A degenerate triangle is formed by 3 collinear points, so we could say it has one side. Or I guess we could say all three sides are the same (coincident)
