Identify triangle type: : Identify the type of special right triangle we're dealing with. In this case, it's not specified, but let's assume it's a 45−45−90 triangle since that's a common example.
Use ratio for sides: : In a 45−45−90 triangle, the sides are in the ratio 1:1:2. If one leg (let's call it a) is of length x, then the hypotenuse (c) is x2.
Assume leg length: : We need the length of one leg to calculate c. Since it's not given, let's assume a leg length of x=10mm for the example.
Calculate hypotenuse length: : Calculate the length of the hypotenuse using the ratio. c=x2=102 mm.
