s1 = side 1 s2 = side 2 and H = Hypotenuse
s12 + s22 = H2
therefore H = square-root of (s12 + s22)

You use the information you're given, combined with all of the equations, formulas,and relationships you know concerning the parts of a right triangle, to find the itemof information that you don't know yet. So the process you follow depends on theinformation you're given.For example, if you're given the lengths of the two legs of the triangle, and you'retold that the triangle is a right triangle, then you use the Pythagorean equationC2 = A2 + B2to find the length of the hypotenuse.
if the triangle has one right angle in it
To find the perimeter of this right angled triangle you need the missing side first Use Pythagoras theorem 10 2 - 8 2 = 36 missing side = sqroot 36 = 6 perimeter =sum all sides = 10+8+6 = 24inches
