You must have at least two of the side lengths. You calculate using the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2+ b^2= c^2 (assuming a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse (longest side))). Ex. a=3 b=4 c=? 3^2= 9. 4^2=16. 9+16= 25. The square root of 25= 5; The hypotenuse

The Pythagorean theorem is used to find the length of a certain side in a right triangle. If you know the length of two sides of a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, a2+ b2 = c2, to find the length of the other side. In the formula, c is the hypotenuse, which the longest side of the triangle.
Pythagorean Theorem: a2 + b2= c2 where c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Hypotenuse is the side of a right triangle opposite to the right angle.
A midsegment of a triangle is parallel to the side of the triangle, and it's length is half the length of that side
The longest length would be the hypotenuse. You can use SOHCAHTOA to find the length.
A radius of a regular triangle is 12 . find the length of one side of the triangle?
