You begin by finding the length of the unknown side. The square of the hypotenuse is
equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs.
Then once you have the lengths of all 3 sides, you adum all up, and you have the perimeter.

What is the formula for finding the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle?
The forumal for finding the finding the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is square root of a squared plus b squared equals c. The letters a and b are the two sides that the length is known and the c is the unknown side.
A right triangle has sides of lengths 15 and 20 and 25 units. What is the perimeter of the and 8203 triangle?
The perimeter of any triangle is the sum of its 3 sides
Is a right triangle an isosceles triangle?
It can be. If two of the sides of a right triangle are the same length then it is an isosceles triangle
What is the length of the median to the hypotenuse of a right triangle if the hypotenuse is 12 inches in length?
The median to the hypotenuse of a right triangle that is 12 inches in length is 6 inches.
What is the lateral area of the right equilateral triangle prism?
It is the perimeter of a triangle times the length of the prism (in square units).
How do you work out the perimeter of a non right-angled triangle?
-- Measure or calculate the length of each of its 3 sides. -- Add the lengths of its 3 sides. -- The sum is the perimeter of the triangle.
How do you find the perimeter of a right angle when the length is 8 and the width is 8?
A "right angle" doesn't have a perimeter. From the rest of the question, we suspect that you might have meant to say a "right triangle", but that's just a guess. The perimeter of any triangle is the sum of the lengths of all three sides. In a right triangle, the length of the longest side is the square root of the sum of the squares of the two short sides. We're sure you can handle it from here.
What is the perimeter of a isosceles right triangle?
The perimeter of any triangle is the sum of its 3 sides.

Perimeter of non right angled triangle?
The perimeter of a triangle is simply the sum of the lengths of its three sides. Knowing that it is right angles (or not) is rarely of help.
How do you find the perimeter of a isoscles triangle all you know is the base and height?
-- Imagine what you have if you slice the triangle in half along the height ...-- You have a right triangle. One side of it is 1/2 of the base, and one side isthe height.-- The slanting side is the hypotenuse of the right triangle, and knowing whatyou know about right triangles, you can calculate its length.-- Once you do that, you have the lengths of all three sides of the original triangle,and you can calculate the perimeter.

A right triangle has a hypotenuse of length 15 and a leg of length 8 What is the area of the triangle?
A right triangle with a hypotenuse of length 15 and a leg of length 8 has an area of: 50.75 units2
If the hypotenuse is 24 of a right angled triangle what is the perimeter?
57.6 is the length of the perimeter. A right angled triamgle follows the '3-4-5' length constant. If 24 represents the 5, then 25/5=4.8. Then the sum of the sides (3+4+5=12). 12 * 4.8 = 57.6. Simple
