Longest side of a triangle is called?
In a right triangle (a triangle where one of the angles is exactly 90 degrees) , the longest side is called the hypotenuse. In non-right triangles, the longest side has no special name.
What is the long side of a triangle called?
hypotenuse - only if it is a right triangle. Otherwise, there is no special name.
What is the side opposite the right angle triangle in a right angled triangle?
The side opposite the right angle of a triangle is the hypotenuse which is the longest side
What is the true about the lengths of the sides of any 30 60 90 right triangle?
side across from 30: 1/2 the hypontenuse side across from 60: the length of the side across from 30, times the square root of 3 side across from 90: the hypotenuse
What side is the hypotenuse in a right triangle?
I am guessing you mean a right angled triangle. The hypotenuse is the longest side on a right angled triangle. So it is the side facing / parallel to the right angle.
What does hypotenuse mean in maths?
The longest side of a triangle, or the side across from the right angle.
What is the name for the longest side in a right angled triangle?
The longest side in a right angled triangle is called a hypotenuse.
Where is the hypotenuse to the right triangle?
the side directly across from the right angle (the only slanted line)
Name the opposite side of right triangle?
The hypotenuse.
Longest side of a triangle is called?

What is the name of the longest side of a right angled triangle?
Hypotenuse.
What is the name of the diagonal side in a right angle triangle?
hypotenuse
What is the long side of a triangle called?
hypotenuse - only if it is a right triangle. Otherwise, there is no special name.
What is the name of the side of a right triangle opposite the 90 degree angle?
That's the triangle's "hypotenuse".
How do you find the hypotenuse of a triangle that has no right angles?
If it has no right angles, it is not a right triangle and therefore you cannot name a hypotenuse of that triangle. Which implies you cannot find that side's measure.
How do you find the hypotenuse of triangle?
If it has no right angles, it is not a right triangle and therefore you cannot name a hypotenuse of that triangle. Which implies you cannot find that side's measure.
What are the Sides adjacent to the right angle of a triangle?
Adjacent means next to. So you're asking what sides of a triangle are next to the right angle of a triangle. That would be the 2 shorter sides of the triangle or 'legs' of the triangle. The hypotenuse (which is the longest side of the triangle) is directly across from the right angle.
