a hypothenuse is a side of the triangle that is not a leg

the hypothenuse formula is c2 = a2 + b2, where c is the lengt of the hypothenuse.

The hypothenuse is the longest side of a triangle. That's why a triangle with 60 degree angles does not have a hypotenuse, onlye three sides of an equivalent length.
