Postby admin on Mon Mar 23, 2009 5:31 pm

Question: Show that a right angled triangle, the hypotenuse is the longest side.

Important points:
(a) The side opposite the larger angle is larger side of the triangle.
(b) The side opposite the smaller angle is smallest side of the triangle.
(c) The sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°.
(d) The measure of the largest angle in a right angled triangle is 90°.

Steps to solve the question:
(a) First prove the base is smaller than the hypotenuse.
(b) Then, prove the perpendicular is also smaller than the hypotenuse.
