Use the formula a²+b²=c² when looking at any right triangle.
a and b may be interchangable but may not be c because c is the hypotenuse. You must have the measurements for at least two sides to find the third.
After substituting in your known values into the formula, solve for the unknown variable to get the remaining side in question.
