a right triangle when you know the lengths of the other two sides.
It states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side
opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two
sides. Mathematically, it can be written as:
h² = p² + b²
AKSHAT: Here, 'h' represents the length of the hypotenuse, and 'p' and 'b' are the lengths of the other two
sides. By using this formula, you can find the length of any side of a right triangle if you know the lengths of the
other two sides.
To find the hypotenuse, add the squares of the other sides, then take the square root. To find a shorter side,
subtract the squares of the other sides, then take the square root.
