Perpendicular means meeting at a right angle.
A right triangle has 2 sides that are perpendicular, so it has 1 pair of sides that are perpendicular
They are known as the "legs" of the right triangle.

What are the perpendicular sides of a right triangle called?
The perpendicular sides of a right triangle are its legs. The remaining side is the hypotenuse.
Does a triangle have parallel and perpendicular sides?
A triangle has no parallel sides but in the form of a right angle triangle it has perpendicular lines that meet at right angles which is 90 degrees.
Which triangle with two sides perpendicular and no two sides congruent?
That would be a right triangle. The perpendicular lines make up the right angle.
