To determine the length of the missing leg, we first need to know the context of the problem. The missing leg is typically referring to a right triangle, where one of the legs is unknown. In a right triangle, we have the Pythagorean theorem, which states that 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.
So, if we have the lengths of the two legs, we can solve for the length of the missing leg by rearranging the Pythagorean theorem equation.
For example, if we have one leg with a length of 5 units and the hypotenuse with a length of 13 units, we can use the equation as follows:
Leg^2 + Leg^2 = Hypotenuse^2
5^2 + Leg^2 = 13^2
25 + Leg^2 = 169
Leg^2 = 169 - 25
Leg^2 = 144
Leg = sqrt(144)
Leg = 12
Therefore, the length of the missing leg in this example is 12 units.
