True


Is it true that a right triangles longest side is called leg?

No it is the hypotenuse


Is it true or false that the legs are the sides that form the right angle in a right triangle?

It is true and the longest side of a right angle triangle is its hypotenuse.


The side opposite the right angle in a right triangle is the hypotenuse.?

The hypotenuse is the longest side in a right triangle and it is opposite the right angle. It is always opposite the right angle and is found by using the Pythagorean theorem.


What is the true about the lengths of the sides of any 30 - 60- 90 right triangle?

The side opposite the 30° angle is shortest, the side opposite the 60° angle is in the middle (length wíse) and the hypotenuse is the longest. The shortest side is half the length of the hypotenuse.


Is this statement true or false The sine of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to that angle to the length of the hypotenuse.?

False because sine ratio = opposite/hypotenuse

Is it true that the measureof the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the side measures squared?

Yes providing that it is a right angle triangle in accordance with Pythagoras' theorem


Is the base of a right triangle the largest of the three sides?

The "base" of any triangle is whatever side it happens to be sitting on in the drawing in which it's presented, and that could be any one of its three sides. In a right triangle, the longest side is the "hypotenuse", which is the side opposite the right angle. That's true whether or not the triangle happens to be drawn with the hypotenuse on the bottom.
