<span>True    A.) It is the longest side of a right triangle.
False  B.) It is one of the legs. It is opposite the right angle.
False  C.) Its length is the sum of the lengths of the other two sides.
False  D.) It forms a right angle with an adjacent side.

If option B is a single choice, then it has to be called false.

Look at option B.
B. "It is one of the legs" is false.
"It is opposite the right angle" is true.
Are you sure option B. is not two different choices, and there are really 5 choices instead of 4?

A right triangle is made up of 3 sides - 2 legs and the hypotenuse. That said, answer B is wrong.

To find the length of the hypotenuse you use the Pythagorean Theorem - a^2 + b^2 = c^2, so answer C is incorrect.

The hypotenuse never forms a right angle with another side, it is located opposite of any right angle, therefore answer D is wrong.

Option A is correct, the hypotenuse is the longest side of a right triangle.

Write a paragraph proof that 1+1=2<br> (Fun fact: it took over 72 pages just to prove that 1+1=2)
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

The theorem here is essentially that

if a and 3 are disjoint sets with

exactly one element each, then their

union has exactly two elements. ...

Peano shows that it's not hard to

produce a useful set of axioms that

can prove 1+1=2 much more easily

than Whitehead and Russell do.

Feliz [49]

Answer:

1,500 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

1\ ft= 12\ in

Convert ft to in

150\ ft=150*12=1,800\ in

<em>Divide the length of a row by the space occupied by one person</em>

1,800/24=75\ persons

<em>Multiply by the number of rows to determine the total people that can fit into the stands</em>

75(20)=1,500\ people
