If he misses a rak‘ah of Eid prayer or the prayer for rain, how should he offer the prayer?

Praise
be to Allah

The correct scholarly view is that
whatever the one who joins the prayer late catches up with with the imam is
the beginning of his prayer, and whatever he does on his own is the end of
his prayer. This is the view of ash-Shaafa‘i (may Allah have mercy on him),
and was narrated in one report from Ahmad (may Allah have mercy on him).
See: al-Majmoo‘ by an-Nawawi (4/420). 

The proof for that is the words of the
Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him): “When the iqaamah for
prayer is given, do not come rushing. Rather come walking, in a tranquil
manner; whatever you catch up with, pray, and whatever you miss, complete
it.”

Narrated by al-Bukhaari (636) and Muslim
(602). 

What this means is that what the one who
joins the prayer late catches up with with the imam is the beginning of his
prayer.

There is no differentiation in this regard
between the obligatory prayers, the Eid prayer, prayer for rain or any other
prayer. If the one who is praying behind the imam catches up with a rak‘ah
of Eid prayer, then that is the beginning of the prayer in his case; then he
should get up after the imam says the salaam and do the second rak‘ah,
saying takbeer five times at the beginning of it, because it is the second
rak‘ah in his case. 

If he catches up with a rak‘ah of the
prayer for rain, he should also stand up and do another rak‘ah, saying
takbeer five times  at the beginning of it, because it is the second rak‘ah
in his case. 

If he catches up with the prostration in
the second rak‘ah, or he catches up with the final tashahhud, he should get
up and do two rak‘ahs, saying takbeer seven or six times in the first rak‘ah,
after the opening takbeer, and five times in the second rak‘ah after the
takbeer of standing. 

And Allah knows best.
