Its base or its height
-- Square the hypotenuse. (Multiply it by itself.)-- Square the base. (Multiply it by itself.)-- Subtract the square of the base from the square of the hypotenuse.-- Take the square-root of the difference. It's the height of the triangle.
Since the triangle has a hypotenuse, it must be a right triangle. Therefore, the Pythagorean theorem applies, and the height of the triangle must be sq rt (32 - 22).
Using Pythagoras' Theorum: (height)^2 = (hypotenuse)^2 - (base)^2
