Right Triangles: -Right triangles have exactly one right (90°) angle. -The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse. hypotenuse -The two sides that form the right angle are called legs. leg The Pythagorean Theorem: The sum of the squares of the legs of a right triangle are equal to the square of the hypotenuse. Mathematicians usually write this as: a c b
