Until we know what the unknown leg is, call it 'L' .
In any right triangle, (Hypotenuse)2 = (one leg)2 + (other leg)2
In this triangle, plug in the things we know: (25)2 = (3)2 + (L)2
(25)2 = 625
(3)2 = 9
625 = 9 + (L)2
Subtract 9 from each side:
616 = (L)2
Take the square root of each side:
L = sqrt(616) = 24.819 (rounded)
============================
We're pretty sure you made a mistake copying the question,
and the hypotenuse was supposed to be 5.
Then the unknown leg is 4 .
A right triangle has a hypotenuse of 13 cm and one leg that measures 12 cm What is the length of the other leg?
The hypotenuse must be longer than the other other leg.
In a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 11 and one leg of 8, the other leg is: 7.55
A right triangle has a hypotenuse of 12cm and a leg that is 9cm the other leg would be 7.94. This is a math problem.
There are an infinite number of different sets of lengths that will do it. You have to start by choosing the length of one side, and when you do that, here's how to find the others: Shorter leg = (longer leg) x 0.364 Shorter leg = (hypotenuse) x 0.342 Longer leg = (shorter leg) x 2.747 Longer leg = (hypotenuse) x 0.94 Hypotenuse = (shorter leg) / 0.342 Hypotenuse = (longer leg) / 0.94
The length of the hypotenuse of a triangle with one leg 19 cm and the other leg eight cm is: 20.62 cm
A right triangle has a hypotenuse of 13 cm and one leg that measures 12 cm What is the length of the other leg?

The hypotenuse is always the longest of the three sides of a right triangle.

-- Like every triangle, a right triangle has three interior angles.-- Unlike any other triangle, one of the angles in a right triangle is a right angle.The other two are both acute angles.-- One acute angle is the angle whose cosine is length of one leg / length of hypotenuse-- Other acute angle is the angle whose sine is length of the same leg / length of the hypotenuse-- The length of the hypotenuse is the square root of [ (length of one leg)2 + length of other leg)2 ]
square root of 46
Use Pythagoras' theorem: 82+92 = 145 and the square root of this is the answer.
A right triangle only has two legs, the third side is called the hypotenuse . The square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs. The square root of the difference of the square of the hypotenuse and the square of one leg is equal to the length of the other leg.
The sine function is used in trigonometric calculations when attempting to find missing side lengths of a right triangle. The sine of an angle in a triangle is equal to the length of the side opposite of that angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle. Using this fact you can calculate the length of the hypotenuse if you know an angle measure and the length of one leg of the triangle. You can also calculate the length of a leg of the triangle if you know an angle measure and the length of the hypotenuse.
The length of the other leg is: 35.6 cm
third leg 5, area 30
