Answer:

To find the pythargoeren(sorry I do not know how to spell this word at all:) you can use the formula a^2+b^2=c^2.

Explanation:

If you recieve the numbers for the longest side and a shorter side then here is how you would set it up: 7^2+b^2=12^2 that was an example.

And if you recieve the numbers for the two shortest sides the set it up like this: 7^2+4^2=c^2

Just so you know these are for example and I am not actually sure if they equal a right triangle or if they are true

Good luck.

The Pythagorean theorem is a^2+ b^2= c^2.


The variables, A and B are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find any side of the triangle when two of the sides of the triangle is known.

Hope this helps!
