In a right triangle, the side lengths follow Pythagora's Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2;
where a and b represent the lengths of the legs and c represents the hypotenuse.

This are called congruent angles. For example, In an isosceles triangle, the two angles which are opposite to the sides that have the same length, have the same measurements. They are called the base angles of the triangle. When each of them is 45 degree, the triangle is also a right triangle, since the other angle is 90 degree.
A right scalent triangle is a triangle with a right angle and no sides equal in length.
They are the "legs" of the triangle.
Not necessarily. A triangle with two equal sides is called an isoceles triangle. A right triangle has one angle that measures 90 degrees.
The length of a hypotenuse with the right triangle sides of 15 and 36 is: 39
