No. A hypotenuse is defined as the side opposite the right angle in a triangle that contains a right angle.

The hypotenuse has no intrinsic relationship to the circle. The hypotenuse is the side of a right triangle that is opposite to the right angle. You can draw a circle that has a hypotenuse as its diameter or its radius, but you can do that with any line segment. It would not be related in another way to the triangle.
Hypotenuse^2 = base^2 + height^2, substitute the given values Hypotenuse^2 = 5^2 + 12^2 Hypotenuse^2 = 25 + 144 Hypotenuse^2 = 169 Hypotenuse = √169 Hypotenuse = 13 Thus, the hypotenuse is 13 inches.
A hypotenuse is the long side of a right triange.
If there is a square field fit in a circle,then the middle point of the hypotenuse of the square is the the centre point of the circle. So,the half of hypotenuse is the radius of the circle. So Hypotenuse of square = √{(5)²+(5)²} cm ==5√2 cm So, the radius of the circle = (5√2 )/2 =5/√2 cm.
If two right triangles have (hypotenuse and a leg of one) = (hypotenuse and the corresponding leg of the other) then the triangles are congruent.
