the hypotenuse is the side of the right triangle that is opposite of the 90 degree angle. To figure out the length of the hypotenuse you can use a2 + b2 = c2 (if you know the length of the other two sides) If you don't that you can probably use the sine or the cosine equation. (as long as you know at least one of the angles)

How do you find the hypotenuse of triangle?
If it has no right angles, it is not a right triangle and therefore you cannot name a hypotenuse of that triangle. Which implies you cannot find that side's measure.
How do i find the hypotenuse of a triangle?
It is the longest side of a right angle triangle.
If the legs of a right triangle are Cm and Cm find its hypotenuse?
No dimensions have been given but to find the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle use Pythagoras' theorem.
How do you determine sine in a right triangle?
The sine of an angle in a right triangle is opposite/hypotenuse, where opposite is the only side that is not adjacent to the angle you want to find the sine of, and the hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle in the triangle. Just find opposite/hypotenuse.
How do you find the length to a missing side of a right triangle?
Pythagorean Theorem: a2 + b2= c2 where c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Hypotenuse is the side of a right triangle opposite to the right angle.
