Right angles are always 90 degrees, (or pi/2 radians if you're into such things) so there isnt really anything to calculate.
You can check that a triangle contains a right angle by verifying it obeys pythagoras theorem,
x2 + y2 = h2 where x and y are the lengths of the two other sides and h is the length of the longest side (the hypotenuse).
If this is the case, the right angle is the one opposite that side, if not, the triangle doesn't contain a right angle.

How do you calculate the height of right triangle given the base?
If you're only given the base, then you can't calculate the other leg. If you have any one of the following, then you can calculate all of the parts of the triangle: -- length of the other leg -- length of the hypotenuse -- size of either acute angle
