That depends on what information that you do know. If you have length of a leg (I'm not sure if that is the correct term or not) and distance from that leg's vertex to a point directly below the other 'vertex', then you have a little right triangle and can use the Pythagorean Theorem (a2 + b2 = c2), where c is the longest side. So in this case you know b and c, so a2 = c2 - b2.
