By using A2 + B2 =C2 A=20 or x B=20or x C= only 25 You can use either side for A and B But C must be 25

How do you find the third side of a triangle given two sides?
To create a triangle, the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the third side. If the longest side is one of the two given sides, then the missing side must be greater than the difference between the two shorter sides. If the missing side is the longest side then the missing side must be less than the sum of the two shorter sides.
How do you find the missing side of a congruent triangle?
Proportions would be the best way; given the sides of the triangle, use ratios to find the corresponding side on the congruent triangle. For example: if three sides are given, 3, 4, and 5, and you had to solve a triangle with lengths 9, 12, and x, this is how you would do it. Given the triangles are congruent, 4/5 = 12/x 4x = 60 x = 15
Find the missing side of a right triangle whose hypotenuse is 13 if one of the sides of the triangle is 5?
12
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle when all three sides are given?
If you have the length of each of the three sides of a triangle, you can find the perimeter of (the distance around) the triangle by adding the length of the sides. Their sum will be the perimeter of this geometric shape.
How do you find a missing side to a right triangle?
A triangle always has 180 units. You would have to add up the two sides and subtract that from 180.
How do you find a missing angle of a right triangle given two sides?
180-x-y (x and y are the sides you already know) there are 180 degrees in a triangle. The remaining # is the last angle

How do you find the range of a triangle?
to find the range of values of triangle. Add the value of the sides of the given sides...is it?

Given the sides of a triangle how do you find the height?
By using sides we get area of triangle and then using (1/2)heightxbase we get height.
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle when all three sides are given?
If you have the length of each of the three sides of a triangle, you can find the perimeter of (the distance around) the triangle by adding the length of the sides. Their sum will be the perimeter of this geometric shape.
How do you find a missing side of a triangle?
The way to find the missing side of a triangle-THIS ONLY WORKS ON RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLES-is square both sides seperately and then add them together to give you the square of the missing side-find the square root and that is the size of the missing side-eg. if you have a RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLE with sides of 3inch and 4inch then (3x3) + (4x4) = 25 so the square root of 25 is 5 meaning the missing side is 5inch.
How can you find sides of a triangle if one of the side and perimeter is given?
That depends on what type of triangle is if the side given is equal to the perimeter divided by 3 then it is an equilateral triangle.
How do you find a missing side to a right triangle?
A triangle always has 180 units. You would have to add up the two sides and subtract that from 180.
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle with grid paper and no given sides?
count the grids
How do you find length of sides in an equilateral triangle?
This depends on the given information in the problem. All sides are equal, so if you can find one, you will know all the sides.
