It is the same length as the corresponding side on the other triangle.
It made finding the missing side of a right triangle easier
There is no standard formula. The answer will depend on the compound shape and also on which of the lengths (or angles) are known.
Missing information must be found.
Because you need information about all three parts of the triangle, either the side or the angle opposite it, for each of the sides of a triangle. In AA you are missing the third angle, you could have a triangle where both angles were the same but the height could be different giving you a taller or shorter triangle. In SSA, the angle would be the one opposite the first side, so you have no information about the third side
180 minus two known angle = missing angle. Use Pythagoras' theorem to find its missing side.
Proportions would be the best way; given the sides of the triangle, use ratios to find the corresponding side on the congruent triangle. For example: if three sides are given, 3, 4, and 5, and you had to solve a triangle with lengths 9, 12, and x, this is how you would do it. Given the triangles are congruent, 4/5 = 12/x 4x = 60 x = 15

The study is called trigonometry.
Depending on what you're solving for in a triangle determines which formula you're going to use. The equations (formulas) are as follows:Finding a missing side of a Right Triangle: a2 + b2 = c2a = leg1 or side1b = leg2 or side2c = HypotenuseInterior Angles of a Triangle: x + y + z = 180ºPerimeter of a Triangle: P = S1 + S2 + S3Area of a Triangle: A = ½bh OR A = (bh)/2When finding the area of something your unit of measurement is always going to be squared. Ex: 5 in2

Add all angles together and minus from 360 degrees
If you have the lengths of all three sides than ÐA = cos-1[(b2 + c2 - a2)/2bc] where a, b and c are the lengths of the sides and A is the angle opposite side a.
I don't think there is a formula if you only know one angle measure. Use a protractor.
The depends on what the missing measurement is. From here, I can see at leastthree missing measurements . . . the height of the triangle, and the lengths of theother two sides. The method needed in order to find the 'missing measurement'depends entirely on which one of those you're asked to find.Here's a formula that may come in handy. If not, just put it away for later.Area of a triangle = 1/2 (Base times Height)
No.
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.
