Not possible without at least one other angle.

If you have the length of one side, a ninety degree angle, and one other angle - you can work out the third angle and the lengths of the missing two sides. once you have all three side measurements, it's a simple task to calculate the area.

How do you find the area of a right triangle that is 5feet x 8feet x 10 feet?

The given dimensions are not compliant for the construction of a right angle triangle but the area of any triangle is: 0.5*base*height


What is the area of a right triangle that is Cm high and has a base that is 7cm long?

The height has not been given but the area of the triangle is: 0.5*height*base


Can the area of a triangle be found when only one specified length is given?

Yes providing that it's an equilateral triangle or a right angle isosceles triangle.


What is the area of a right triangle that has sides measuring 10 cm15cm and 18cm?

The given dimensions would not form a right angle triangle but in general the are of a triangle is 0.5*base*perpendicular height


How do you find the area of a triangle with side lengths?

If you are only given the side lengths of a scalene triangle, it is impossible for you to find for the area, unless you are given more information... like the height of the triangle for example. If this is a right triangle you would like to find the area of, you can multiply the length of each leg with each other, and then divide that product by 2 to conclude the area of the triangle.

What is the area of right angled triangle at the right?

There is no right triangle on the right! (Ignore the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle.) if you have the length of the two legs (base and the upright side): (base x upright) ÷ 2 = area of the right angle triangle.


How do you find the base of a right triangle when only the height is given?

Use trigonometry if another angle is given. Use Pythagoras' theorem if the hypotenuse is given. Multiply the area by 2 and divide it by its height if the area is given. Or simply measure it.
