It depends on which side is missing. If the hypotenuse (longest side, opposite right angle) is missing, square the lengths of the other two sides, add them, and then square root your answer. If a leg is missing, square the two remaining sides, subtract the smaller from the larger, and square root it. All of this is derived from the Pythagorean Theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2, where a and b are the lengths of the two legs and c is the length of the hypotenuse.
180 minus two known angle = missing angle. Use Pythagoras' theorem to find its missing side.
You use the Pythagoras Theorem if it is a right-angled triangle. a squared + b squared = h (longest side, diagonal) squared, then square root h to find the longest side. if it is not a right angled triangle, then use the Sine or Cosine rule. Sine rule for: two angles and any one side or two sides and an angle that is not in between the sides. Cosine rule for: all three sides (but then you do not need to find a missing side) or two sides and an angle that is in between.
It made finding the missing side of a right triangle easier
It is the same length as the corresponding side on the other triangle.
There are two possibilities: either 9 is the lnegth of the hypotenuse, or the missing length is. If 9 is the longest side, this leaves √65 ≈ 8 asthe remaining side. If the missing side is the hypotenuse, then it is √97 ≈ 10.
The missing side of a right triangle is called the hypotenuse. This side is opposite the right angle and is the longest side of the triangle.
to find the missing side of a right triangle you need the pythagorean theorem. A2 + B2 = C2. c is the longest side and a and b is the other sides. no particular side is a or b just the longest side is c.
The way to find the missing side of a triangle-THIS ONLY WORKS ON RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLES-is square both sides seperately and then add them together to give you the square of the missing side-find the square root and that is the size of the missing side-eg. if you have a RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLE with sides of 3inch and 4inch then (3x3) + (4x4) = 25 so the square root of 25 is 5 meaning the missing side is 5inch.
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.
180 minus two known angle = missing angle. Use Pythagoras' theorem to find its missing side.
If the 13 is the longest side of that right triangle, then the missing side is 5 . If 'c' is the longest side of that right triangle, then the missing one is 17.692 (rounded).

Surely you know how to find the third side of a right triangle, when you know the lengths of the other two. Find it, and then add up the lengths of the three sides to get the perimeter.
A triangle always has 180 units. You would have to add up the two sides and subtract that from 180.
It depends on what is known about the triangle.
The length of the other side is: 28.6 cm
