No, you do not need to know the length of all the sides of one triangle to find a missing length of a similar triangle. If you know at least one pair of corresponding sides from both triangles, you can use the proportionality of the sides in similar triangles to find the missing length. The ratio of the lengths of corresponding sides remains constant, allowing you to set up a proportion to solve for the unknown length.
The way to find the missing side of a triangle-THIS ONLY WORKS ON RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLES-is square both sides seperately and then add them together to give you the square of the missing side-find the square root and that is the size of the missing side-eg. if you have a RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLE with sides of 3inch and 4inch then (3x3) + (4x4) = 25 so the square root of 25 is 5 meaning the missing side is 5inch.

To find a missing side in math, you typically use geometric principles or formulas based on the type of shape involved. For example, in a right triangle, you can apply the Pythagorean theorem (a² + b² = c²) to find the missing side, where 'c' is the hypotenuse. In other cases, you might use algebraic equations, proportions, or properties of similar figures. Always ensure you have sufficient information before attempting to solve for the missing side.
The answer depends on what solving is required: do you need to find the area, perimeter, angles, trigonometric rations?

you can't, because the Pythagorean theorem is for right triangles and the triangles formed by the diagonal of a parallelogram are not right triangles.

Trigonometry is used to find the properties of triangles and Pythagoras' theorem is used to find the lengths and angles of right angle triangles.

If you know the hypotenuse and the base then use Pythagoras' theorem to find the altitude
Pythagoras theorem is always used in right angle triangles. It can be used to find any of the third side is two sides are given, It can also used to find the area of cone if slant height or anything else is missing.
The idea is that you model a situation with similar triangles and then use proportions to find the missing measurement indirectly.
180 minus two known angle = missing angle. Use Pythagoras' theorem to find its missing side.
