Where do you find the HYPOTENUSE of a right triangle?

• Opposite the 90 degree angle

• The LONGEST side

• The SHORTEST side

• Opposite the SMALLEST angle

• Opposite the LARGEST angle

Pythagorean Theorem tells us that the ​ (a)   ​+ the BLUE AREA

= ​ the (b)  

• RED AREA
• PURPLE AREA
• BLUE AREA
