Answer:

Hypotenuse is the longest side of a right-angled triangle, the side opposite the right angle.

Explanation:

The length of the hypotenuse can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, which states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.

HOPE THIS HELPED!! :)
