Answer:

In a right angled triangle it is easy to find the hypotenuse.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

a² + b² = c²

So let's say that leg "a" = 3 cm and leg "b" = 4 cm

Then we:

(3)² + (4)² = c²

9 + 16 = 25     √25 = 5

Therefore the hypotenuse of the right triangle is 5



P.S. Please give me a thanks!

In the given triangle ABC,

Angle B = 90°

Hence Angle A + Angle C = 180°- 90°  ...(Sum of all angles of the triangle are 180°)

Therefore Angle B is the greater angle than Angle A and Angle C. [Angle A>Angle C ]  

We know that, Side opposite to greater angle is always longer.

Therefore, Side opposite to angle B is AC

.

[AC > BC and AC > AB]

That is AC is the longest side..

[AC is the hypotenuse]
