To find the missing side of the triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, if the two given sides are 7 cm and 13 cm, we can use the formula (a^2 + b^2 = c^2), where a and b are the given sides and c is the missing side (the hypotenuse). Plugging in the values, we get (7^2 + 13^2 = c^2), which simplifies to (49 + 169 = c^2), or (218 = c^2). Taking the square root of both sides, we find that the missing side is approximately 14.76 cm.

MaxineNeed the angle between those two sides, or some more info.
Imagine taking a 1 inch tooth pick and a 2 inch toothpick. Now line up the tips and you
can make tons of angles. If you joined the outer tips of your toothpicks you would have a triangle. Can you see that you can have many different sides lengths depending on the angle between them?

What is the right triangle if a12 and b13 what is c?
If the 13 is the longest side of that right triangle, then the missing side is 5 . If 'c' is the longest side of that right triangle, then the missing one is 17.692 (rounded).
Find the missing side of a right triangle whose hypotenuse is 13 if one of the sides of the triangle is 5?
12
What could be the length of the third side of a triangle that has two sides of lengths 5 and 13?
To create a triangle, the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the third side. If the side of length 13 is the longest side then the missing side must be greater than 13 - 5 = 8 If the missing side is the longest side then the missing side must be less than 13 + 5 = 18 Thus any length that is greater than 8 and less than 18 Examples include: 9, 12, 17 If the third side is 12, the triangle is a Pythagorean triangle.
If you have a triangle one side is 7 cm and one side is 13 cm what is the length of the missing side?
I don't think there is enough information to answer the question, first of all, is it a right triangle? Second, is the the 13cm the hypotenuse. Assuming that 13cm is the hypotenuse, and the triangle is a right triangle, the equation would be 49+x^2=169
What is the length of side a if side b is 7cm and side c is 13 cm?
It can be any length greater than 6 cm and less than 20 cm.
