Fill in the blank to make the following statement true.
In a right triangle the hypotenuse is the .... side.

Solution
In a right triangle the hypotenuse is the largest side
Reason: Since a triangle can have only one right angle, other two angles must be
less than 90°
⇒ The right angle is the largest angle
⇒ Hypotenuse is the largest side.
