a²+b²=c²
It is: c2-b2 = a2 whereas c is the hypotenuse, b is the base and a is the altitude
Two methods ;- #1 ; Use Pythagoras, if the lengths of the other two sides are known. h^(2) = s(1)&(2) + s(2)^(2) In words, 'The hypotenuse squared is the sum of the squares of the other two sides. #2 ; Use Trigonometry (trig.) is the length of one side and an angle are known . Hence Sin(angle) = opposite / hypotenuse hypotenuse = opposite / Sin(angle) or Cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse hypotenuse = adjacent/Cos(angle).
The formula to find the hypotenuse of a right triangle is a2+b2=c2. c being the hypotenuse, a and b being the legs. So, 42+32=c2. 16+9=c2. 25=c2. c=5. The hypotenuse is 5.
Depending on the information given;- If two other(shorter) sides are known, use Pythagoras. h^(2) = a^(2) + b^(2) If one angle and one side are given then you use Trigonometry . Sin(angle) = opposite/ hypotenuse hypotenuse = opposite/Sin(angle) or Cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse hypotenuse = adjacent/ Cos(Angle).
By using the formula a2+b2=c2, where a is one side of the right-angled triangle and b is the other side of the right angle triangle. C stands for the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle. Note: this formula only works for RIGHT-ANGLED TRIANGLES!!!

base squared times height squared equals the hypotenuse squared. then you know the hypotenuse.
The hypotenuse of a triangle is always the longest side. The hypotenuse of the right triangle measured 5 inches. In the formula "a2 + B2 = C2, the hypotenuse is always C.
The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is 13 centimeters long. How long are its sides?
That is it. Just the hypotenuse - provided you have the correct triangle.
For trigonometry if you have the value of the hypotenuse and the angle, it depends what side you are trying to find. If you are looking for the side across from the angle, the formula is sine(angle)=opposite side divided by hypotenuse. If you are looking for the side adjacent to the angle, the formula is cosine(angle)=adjacent side divided by hypotenuse. Hope this helps!
The hypotenuse of the nth triangle has a length of sqrt(n+1)

It is: c2-b2 = a2 whereas c is the hypotenuse, b is the base and a is the altitude
The side opposite the right triangle is the hypotenuse. The formula for finding the hypotenuse is A squared plus B squared equal C squared. C is the hypotenuse. If side A is 3 and side B is 4, the equation would read 9 plus 16 equal C squared, or 25 equals C squared. The square of 25 is 5, so the hypotenuse is 5.
Sounds like you mean Pythagoras.
