No because the hypotenuse is used to show which line is the longest in the triangle therefore it will always be the longest.

The hypotenuse of a 30-60 right triangle if the short leg is 2992 is: 5984
The short leg is equal to one-half of the hypotenuse. ( sin 30 = opposite/hypotenuse = short leg/hypotenuse = 1/2)
It may be of any length but it is always the longest side in a right-angled triangle.
The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right angled triangle.
True, because the slant height and the altitude, or height, of the pyramid form one leg and the hypotenuse of a triangle withing the pyramid, and the hypotenuse of a triangle is always the longest side- it is not possible for the hypotenuse to be equal to the legs of a right triangle. (It is a right triangle because an altitude is perpendicular to the base of a pyramid.)
