If two sides are given and you need to know the length of the third side use the Pythagrean Theorem formula. Then you find the square root. c² = a² + b²* * * * *That is useful only if the triangle is a right angled triangle. Most are not. The correct answer depends on what information you do have.
If it's a right triangle, a2 + b2 = c2 3 + 5 = c2 c = the square root of 8.
1) The hypotenuse side will ALWAYS be the the side w/ the radical 2. 2) So if you want to find the HYPOTENUSE of an ISOSCELES triangle, you MULTIPLY one of the LEGS by the the square root of 2. 3) If you want to find the LEG of an ISOSCELES triangle, you DIVIDE the HYPOTENUSE by the square root of 2. ***** Hypotenuse of an isosceles triangle= one leg divided by square root of 2. ***** Leg of an isosceles triangle= hypotenuse divided by the square root of 2.

The formula for the area of a square is A=s2. So to find the sidelength, find the square root of the area.
square the length of the 2 shorter sides, add them together, take the square root and you have the hypotenuse
the area of a triangle A= Square root of s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)
To find the altitude or height of an equilateral triangle, take one-half of the length of a side of the triangle and multiple by "square root" of 3. So, if for example, the side has length 10, the height = 5 Square root of 3.
Ok to find the area of an isosceles triangle: Find the height first, to do this use this formula: Height = Square root ( one side square - half the base square) Now that you have the height you can calculate the area by the use of this formula: Area = (1/2)(base)(height) This will give you the surface area of an isosceles triangle. Lets do an example: You have a triangle that has two sides that measure 24 meters and a base of 20 meters. Using the formula above for height you will get a height of 21.8 meters Now use the formula above to find the area and it will give you an area of 218 meters square

a square root spiral is a spiral formed by many right angled triangles, where, the hypotenuse of each triangle is the square root of a number.the first triangle is always an isoseles triangle, with its hypotenuse equal to square root of 2.
The square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle ("h") is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides of the right triangle ("a" and "b"): h2 = a2 + b2. hypotenuse is equal to square root of a2+b2.

There is no formula for the square root of a number, unfortunately.
The square of the length of the base plus the square of the length of the height will equal the square of the length of the hypotenuse of your right triangle, per Pythagoras. Square the hypotenuse, subtract the square of the height, and then find the positive square root of that and you'll have the base of your right triangle.

You use the pythagorean theorem.
