Question

In a right angle triangle, the hypotenuse is the greatest side.

State whether the above statement is true or false.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

In a right angled triangle, the angle opposite to the hypotenuse is ${90}^o$, while other two angles are always less than ${90}^o$.
As the side opposite to the largest angle is always the largest in a triangle, the hypotenuse is the largest side in a right angled triangle.
