Triangle Side Calculator
Find the opposite side with the cosine rule.
Open toolSolve right-triangle sides, acute angles and their sine, cosine and tangent. Provide Known pair, Leg a, Leg b to compute results directly in your browser. Positive legs; c>a in hypotenuse mode;0 < A < 90 deg. Modes explicitly identify the angle opposite leg a. Degenerate inputs rejected. Inputs and results use floating-point numbers; output shows up to 12 significant digits. Rounding can occur. Common search workflows supported include "right triangle calculator trig", "right triangle trigonometry calculator", "right triangle trigonometry solver".
Enter the inputs, then select Calculate.

These concrete scenarios illustrate how the Right Triangle Trigonometry Calculator processes baseline inputs, comparison checks, and boundary constraints.
Known pair = Legs a and b; Leg a = 3; Leg b = 4; Hypotenuse c = 5; Angle A opposite leg a (deg) = 30. The displayed output is Leg a: 3 Leg b: 4 Hypotenuse c: 5 Angle A: 36.8698976458 deg Angle B: 53.1301023542 deg A sin, cos, tan: 0.6, 0.8, 0.75 B sin, cos, tan: 0.8, 0.6, 1.33333333333.

Known pair = Hypotenuse c and leg a; Leg a = 5; Leg b = 4; Hypotenuse c = 13; Angle A opposite leg a (deg) = 30. The displayed output is Leg a: 5 Leg b: 12 Hypotenuse c: 13 Angle A: 22.619864948 deg Angle B: 67.380135052 deg A sin, cos, tan: 0.384615384615, 0.923076923077, 0.416666666667 B sin, cos, tan: 0.923076923077, 0.384615384615, 2.4.

When solving for 'right triangle calculator trig', verify that Known pair, Leg a, Leg b use consistent units and stay within the documented scope: Positive legs; c>a in hypotenuse mode;0 < A < 90 deg. Modes explicitly identify the angle opposite leg a. Degenerate inputs rejected. Inputs and results use floating-point numbers; output shows up to 12 significant digits. Rounding can occur.

The output panel reports the exact result derived from Known pair, Leg a, Leg b alongside any unit or formatting notes.
The result is the side lengths, acute angles and trigonometric ratios. Recover a right triangle from one supported pair of measurements.
The angle opposite the stated leg fixes the convention and degenerate inputs are rejected.
Numerical output shows up to 12 significant digits. Floating-point arithmetic and display rounding can affect the last digits.

Review these boundary constraints and validation rules before relying on the Right Triangle Trigonometry Calculator output.
Operational scope: Positive legs; c>a in hypotenuse mode;0 < A < 90 deg. Modes explicitly identify the angle opposite leg a. Degenerate inputs rejected. Inputs and results use floating-point numbers; output shows up to 12 significant digits. Rounding can occur. Inputs that violate minimum/maximum bounds or required format rules are rejected with a clear diagnostic prompt.
