Question 244412: I need to find the missing length of the right side of triangle where 4cm is the left side angle and 12cm is the bottom side and y is the right side Answer by math11(1) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You've got a right triangle therefore you use the Pythagorean theorem to find your missing side.
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
4^2 + 12^2 = c^2
16 + 144 = c^2
160 = c^2
4 square root of 10 cm is your answer =)
