3. The hypotenuse of one of the sides of a right-angled triangle are represented by consecutive
integers. If the length of this side is 'a' cm, where a is an integer, find the length of the other
side.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hypotenuse, opposite, and adjacent. In a right triangle, the hypotenuse is the longest side, an "opposite" side is the one across from a given angle, and an "adjacent" side is next to a given angle. We use special words to describe the sides of right triangles.
