abcd is a right angle triangle at b.
(using inequalities)
the greatest angle has the greatest side apposite to it.
so, in a right angle triangle the greatest angle is 90°. so the line opposite to it (hypotenuse) is the longest side.


I hope you understand it well.

Here Given that : A right angled triangle ABC, \angleB = 90°.

To prove : Hypotenuse AC is the longest wide.

Means

AC > AB

AC > BC

Now in \triangleABC

\angle = 90°

But \angleCAB + \angleBCA + \angleCBA = 180°

90° + \angleBCA + \angleCAB = 180°

=> \angleBCA + \angleCAB = 90°

=> \angleBCA and \angleCAB are acute angles

Thus, \angleBCA < 90° and \angleCAB < 90°

=> \angleBCA < \angleABC and \angleCAB < \angleABC

=> AC > AB and AC > BC

Side opposite to greater angle is larger. Thus, AC is the longest side.
