Question

State the following statement is True or False

In a right angled triangle, hypotenuse is a larger side.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Suppose in a right triangle $ABC$

Using Pythagoras theorem

${AC}^2={AB}^2+{BC}^2$

Then ${AC}^2>{AB}^2,{AC}^2>{BC}^2$

So $AC>AB,AC>BC$

Hence Hypotenuse is a largest side in right angled triangle.
