To solve this equation you need to use the pythagorean theorem which states that a^2+b^2=c^2 where c is the hypotenuse (the longest side). If c is the hypotenuse then you would do 9+16=c^2. Therefore you would find the square root of 25 which is 5. Therefore, if the unknown is the hypotenuse, your answer is 5!
*note: x^2 is equal to x squared

How do you get the other sides of a triangle when you only have one side?
You need the measures of two sides and for the triangle to be a right triangle to figure out the third side.
If the sides of an isosceles triangle are 5 and 8 what is the third side?
The third side would be either 5 or 8,as an isosceles triangle has 2 equal sides.
What is the formula for measuring the side of a triangle if you have two sides?
Two sides of a triangle do not, automatically, give you the measure of the third side. Further information about the triangle is required.
What is the third side of the triangle rule?
The sum of two sides must be greater than the third.
The measures of two sides of a triangle are 22 and 34 Which measure is possible for the third side?
Doesn't it depend on what type of triangle it is? And which sides you are measuring? And which side it's laying on?

What is the length of the third side of an equilateral triangle have?
The length of the third side of an equilateral triangle is the same as the lengths of both of the other two sides.
Can the sum of two sides of a triangle be equal to the third side?
no it can not be eaual but it can be greater than The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.
What is the third side an isosceles triangle?
An isosceles triangle has 3 sides 2 of which are equal in length
Sum of the two sides of a triangle is greater than its?
Its third side.
What is a triangle that has two sides the same and the therid different?
It is an isosceles triangle that has two equal sides and the third side being different

The length of the third side is the same as the length of either of the other two sides.
What is true about the lengths of the three sides of a triangle?
For a triangle to exist, the sum of the shorter two sides must be longer than the third side.
