How do you calculate the hypotenus of a triangle -- not a right triangle.?
This is impossible, as a hypotenuse is only found on a right triangle.
What is the long side of a triangle called?
hypotenuse - only if it is a right triangle. Otherwise, there is no special name.
How do you find the angle opposite of the hypotenuse of a triangle with all three sides known?
The only triangle that has a hypotenuse is a right-triangle. The hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle, so the angle is always 90 degrees. In this case, if you're just finding the angle then you don't need to know what the side lengths are.
How do you find the length of the sides of a right triangle given the hypotenuse?
You can't. You need some more information. If you only know the length of the hypotenuse, you can draw an infinite number of different right triangles that all have the same hypotenuse.
How do you find the hypotenuse with only a leg and a degree?
If it's a right angle triangle and an acute angle plus the length of a leg is given then use trigonometry to find the hypotenuse.
