RIGHT-ANGLED

TRIANGLES
A RIGHT-ANGLED TRIANGLEIS A
TYPE OF TRIANGLE THATHAS
ONE OF ITS ANGLESEQUAL TO
90 DEGREES. THESIDES THAT
INCLUDE THERIGHT ANGLE
AREPERPENDICULAR AND
THEBASE OF THE TRIANGLE.
THETHIRD SIDE IS CALLED
THEHYPOTENUSE, WHICH IS
THELONGEST SIDE OF ALL
THREESIDES.

Pythagoras theorem
According to this theorem, in a right
triangle,
Hypotenuse² = Perpendicular² + Base²
