There are an infinite number of possible pairs of values for the two legs. They can be x cm and y cm for any positive numbers x and y. Then, by Pythagoras, the hypotenuse would be sqrt(x2 + y2) cm.

So 1, 1, and sqrt(2) is one possible set

1, 1.1 and sqrt(2.21) is another

1, 5000, and sqrt(25000001) is a third
