the formula is the Pythagorean theorem a^2+b^2=c^2
By using Pythagoras' theorem for a right angle triangle.
hypotenuse
That is it. Just the hypotenuse - provided you have the correct triangle.
The Pythagorean theorem is used to find the length of a certain side in a right triangle. If you know the length of two sides of a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, a2+ b2 = c2, to find the length of the other side. In the formula, c is the hypotenuse, which the longest side 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

The hypotenuse
To get the area of an equilateral triangle, you just need to know the length of one side. Multiply the length of one side by the square root of three and then divide the product by four, and you will get the area of the triangle.
One side is not enough. For a right triangle the third side can be calculated by Pythagoras' Theorem if you know the length of any two sides.
The area of any triangle is1/2 of (the length of the triangle's base) times (the triangle's height).

That is it. Just the hypotenuse - provided you have the correct triangle.
By using the formula a2+b2=c2, where a is one side of the right-angled triangle and b is the other side of the right angle triangle. C stands for the hypotenuse of the right-angled triangle. Note: this formula only works for RIGHT-ANGLED TRIANGLES!!!
