What to Focus On

  • The side opposite to 90 degrees is the hypotenuse.
  • The hypotenuse is always the largest side of a right-angled triangle.
  • The hypotenuse is identified by the right angle, not only by length.
  • Square of hypotenuse = sum of squares of the other two sides.
  • Only right-angled triangles satisfy this relation.
  • First identify the hypotenuse before using the formula.
  • Equal squares mean a right-angled triangle.
  • Greater than means obtuse-angled.
  • Less than means acute-angled.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The longest side in any triangle is always the hypotenuse.

Pythagoras theorem can be used in every triangle, even if there is no right angle.

The square of the hypotenuse means the hypotenuse itself, not its square.
