If you know the height and the length of a triangle how do you work out the diagnal of a right angle triangle?
A right triangle (or right-angled triangle, formerly called a rectangled triangle) has one of its interior angles measuring 90° (a right angle). The side opposite to the right angle is the hypotenuse; it is the longest side in the right triangle. The other two sides are the legs or catheti[4] (singular: cathetus) of the triangle. Right triangles obey the Pythagorean theorem: the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse: a2 + b2 = c2, where a and b are the lengths of the legs and c is the length of the hypotenuse.

How do you find the length of the base with no area and no height?
The measurement of the angle of the triangle...supposing it is a triangle.
When a square is divided by a diagnal is an isosceles acute triangle is form?
A right angle isosceles triangle is then formed which will have two 45 degrees angles and one 90 degrees angle.
What is pythagarous theorm?
That for any right angle triangle the length of its hypotenuse when squared is equal to the of length of the base when squared plus the length of the height when squared:- a2+b2 = c2 where a and b are the base and the height of the triangle and c is its hypotenuse.
How to measure length of two sides height diagonal of a right angle triangle where all degrees of angle and length of base given?
The answer depends on whether the base is one of the legs of the right angle or the hypotenuse. Also, a triangle cannot have a diagonal.
How do you find the area of a triangle if you know the length of all three sides?
The area of a triangle (At) is one half the length of the base (b) times the height (h).Atriangle = 0.5bhThe height of a triangle is the length of the line drawn perpendicular (at right angles to) to the base from the angle opposite the base.
