Te answer will depend on what information is given. There are all sorts of trigonometric methods but they all need some information - not a list of what is not known!

How do you find the height of a triangle given the hypotenuse?

Providing it's a right angle triangle the formula is: hypotenuse2-base2 = height2


How do you find the area of the right angle triangle given the base hypotenuse and perimeter?

It is: perimeter minus hypotenus+base = height Area = 0.5*base*height


How do you find the base of a right triangle when only the height is given?

Use trigonometry if another angle is given. Use Pythagoras' theorem if the hypotenuse is given. Multiply the area by 2 and divide it by its height if the area is given. Or simply measure it.


How do you find the hypotenuse with only a leg and a degree?

If it's a right angle triangle and an acute angle plus the length of a leg is given then use trigonometry to find the hypotenuse.


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 find sides of right triangle given only the hypotenuse and all angles?

One is the hypotenuse times the sine of one acute angle, the other, the hypotenuse times the sine of the other acute angle (or the cosine of the first).


How do you find angle of elevation when given hypotenuse and a base?

Given the hypotenuse and the base ...-- divide the (base) by the (hypotenuse); get a number less than '1'.-- the number is the 'cosine' of the elevation angle.-- either take the cos-1 of the number on a calculator, which is the angleOR-- look up the number in a table of cosines and see what angle it represents.


How do you find exterior angle?

the hypotenuse is the exterior angle


How do you find the hypotenuse of a right triangle when only a side length and angle is given?

Dependent on what side you are given you would use Sin(Θ) = Opposite/Hypotenuse just rearrange the formula to Hypotenuse = Opposite/Sin(Θ). Or if you are given the adjacent side use Cosine(Θ)=Adjacent/Hypotenuse, then: Hypotenuse = Adjacent/Cosine(Θ)


How do you find the unknown side of a right triangle given the length of another side and an angle?

opposite/hypotenuse = sin(x) adjacent/hypotenuse = cos(x) opposite/adjacent = tan(x) where 'x' is the angle in question.


How do you find the height and length of a triangle?

I'm not sure what you are asking, so I may not be answering your question, but I'll try to the best of my ability.This is only for RIGHT TRIANGLESGiven a right triangle and the angle measurements besides the 90 degree angle of the right angle are 30 and 60 degrees (the combined angle measurements of a triangle always equal 180 degrees), the base is x, the height is xsqrt3, and the hypotenuse (or the longest side opposite the height) is 2x. This shortcut only works for right triangles with the other angle measurements 30 and 60 degrees.For example, you are given a triangle with the base=2 units. Using the shortcut, the height=2sqrt3 units. Then the hypotenuse=4 units.Given a right triangle and the angle measurements besides the 90 degree angle of the right angle are 45 and 45 degrees, the base is x, the height is also x, and the hypotenuse is xsqrt2. This shortcut only works for right triangles with both the other angle measurements equal to 45 degrees.For example, you are given a triangle with the base=2 units. The height is also 2 units. And finally, the hypotenuse=2sqrt2 units.*Another way to find the other side beside the shortcut is by using the Pythagorean Theorum (a2+b2=c2) if you are given the other two side measurements.*
