Can you find the length of the sides of a right triangle knowing only the hypotenuse?

No.


How do you find the area of a triangle given only the perimeter?

It is possible depending on what type of triangle it is. For instance if it was an equilateral triangle then all sides would be equal and then by means of Pythagoras' theorem you could work out the height of the triangle and using the formula: 1/2*base*height = area


What type of triangle's sides have all nine sides?

A triangle can have only three sides. No triangle can have 9 sides!


How do you find sides of perimeter of triangle when area is given?

To find the sides of a triangle when only the area is given, you can use Heron's formula, which relates the area to the semi-perimeter and the lengths of the sides. First, denote the sides as (a), (b), and (c), and calculate the semi-perimeter (s = \frac{a+b+c}{2}). The area (A) can be expressed as (A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}). However, without additional information, such as the ratio of the sides or one side length, you cannot uniquely determine the side lengths from the area alone.

How you find the base height and sides of a triangle if you only have the area?

With great difficulty - it is impossible without further information.For example:A triangle with sides 3, 4, 5 - base 3, height 4 has area 6 units2;a triangle with sides 2, 6, ~6.32 (√40) - base 2 height 6 has area 6 units2.Both the triangles have the same area but different sides; those are both right angled triangles, but other ones are possible, eg a triangle with sides 2.5, ~4.92 (1/2 x √97), 6 also has base 6 and height 2 and an area 6 units2.
