Given a right triangle, the hypotenuse is the longest side or simply the side opposite the 90o angle.
The six main trigonometric functions are sin(x)=opposite/hypotenuse cos(x)=adjacent/hypotenuse tan(x)=opposite/adjacent csc(x)=hypotenuse/opposite cot(x)=adjacent/opposite sec(x)=hypotenuse/adjacent Where hypotenuse, opposite, and adjacent correspond to the three sides of a right triangle and x corresponds to an angle in that right triangle.
It is opposite the right angle and it is the longest side.
It is the side opposite the right angle. It is also the longest side.
Yes if the isosceles triangle is a right isosceles triangle because that leg opposite the hypotenuse is the height
