How do you fine the missing side of a right angle only given one side?
You need either two sides given, to find a third side. Or > you need one side and an angle, to find another side.
What to do when you have the hypotenuse and angle?
For trigonometry if you have the value of the hypotenuse and the angle, it depends what side you are trying to find. If you are looking for the side across from the angle, the formula is sine(angle)=opposite side divided by hypotenuse. If you are looking for the side adjacent to the angle, the formula is cosine(angle)=adjacent side divided by hypotenuse. Hope this helps!
How do you find the other side of a right triangle?
use right triangle trig... sin (angle) = opposite side/hypotunese, cos (angle) = adjacent side/hypotunese, and tan (angle) = opposite side/ adjacent side
What do you do when you want to find the longest side?
Well, it depends. If you are trying to find the hypotenuse, then you go from the right angle and up. The side you across from right angle is the hypotenuse.
How do you find the side of a triangle?
To find the degree of angle of a side of a triangle, a protractor is needed to measure the angle. Place the '0' on the protractor on the point of the angle and look at the top part to determine degree of angle. To measure the length of a triangle side, a simple ruler can be used to measure the length.
