I have a right triange with an x axis of .125 and a radius of .5305 on the hypotenuse. this radius is .833 long. I need to know the y axis length.

if you need a picture please tell me how to get you one -jett64
 
Picture please, I am not understanding your discription.

Try Paint, it should be enough to make a vague drawing.
 
Use Pythagorean Theorem:\(\displaystyle \L \;a^2\,+\,b^2\,=\,c^2\)

...\(\displaystyle a\,&\,b\,=\,legs\,;\,c\,=\,hypotenuse\)
