In any triangle, the shortest side is opposite the smallest angle, and the longest side
is opposite the largest angle.
In a right triangle, the right angle has to be the largest angle, so the side opposite the
right angle is the longest side. The side opposite the right angle is the hypotenuse.

What is a height of a triangle?
The perpendicular distance from the base (either the longest side or the bottom) to the other corner
What is the base word of perpendicular?
There's no base word.
How do you setup the problem of Pythagorean theorem?
base*base+perpendicular*perpendicular= hypotenuese*hypotenuese
Where is the altitude of a right triangle?
'altitude' or perpendicular. If on line is the base (horizontal) line, then the line that is a 90 degrees to it is the perpendicular/altitude.
What is the perpendicular distance from the base of a quadrilateral to the opposite side?
the perpendicular distance from the base of a quadrilateral to the opposite side?
What is a perpendicular height?
The perpendicular height extends from the vertex opposite the base to meet the base at a 90 degree angle.
How may perpendicular lines in an isosceles triangle?
None but its apex is perpendicular to its base
What is the area of a parallelogram with base 18cm and perpendicular height 18cm?
The area of a parallelogram with base 18cm and perpendicular height 18cm is 324 cm2
What is the crosssection perpendicular to the base of a triangle?
A triangle does not have a cross-section but the perpendicular line of a right angle triangle meets the base at 90 degrees.
What is Base x perpendicular?
it i exactly the same as base x height
What isThe area of a triangle 4 by 7?
The area of a triangle is (1/2) base times height; the height must be perpendicular to the base.The area of a triangle is (1/2) base times height; the height must be perpendicular to the base.The area of a triangle is (1/2) base times height; the height must be perpendicular to the base.The area of a triangle is (1/2) base times height; the height must be perpendicular to the base.
What is the formula for finding the are of a triangle?
half x base x perpendicular heightThe height is called the perpendicular height because it is at a right-angle to the base.
