What is the hypotenuse of the right triangle with perpendicular side
and
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:In a right angled triangle, the three sides are called: Perpendicular, Base(Adjacent) and Hypotenuse(Opposite). Perpendicular is the side that makes right angle with the base of the triangle.
The largest side side which is opposite to the right-angle(90 degree) is known as the Hypotenuse. The side that is adjacent to the right angle are called legs cathetus. Thus both base and Perpendicular are known as Cathetus.
To find the side of the triangle, we need the sides of other two triangle.

In trigonometry, the values of trigonometric functions at 90 degrees is given by:
Sin 90° = 1
Cos 90° = 0
Tan 90° = Not defined
Cot 90° = 0
Sec 90° = Not defined
Cosec 90° = 1
