    Step-by-step explanation:

    You need two more pieces of information: either two sides, or a side and an angle.

    Given two sides, the third side can be found with Pythagorean theorem, and the angles can be found with trigonometry.

    Given an angle and a side, the remaining angle and sides can be found with trigonometry.

    To use trigonometry to solve a right triangle, use SOH-CAH-TOA.

    Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

    Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

    Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent
