Question

if a triangle has side lengths of 56, 90, and 106, then determine which number correlates to the legs and hypotenuse.

Answer 1

106= Hypotenuse, 90 and 56=legs

Explanation:

If a triangle has side lengths of 56,90 and 106, then according to properties of the triangle, the hypotenuse is the largest side of the triangle,thus out of 56, 90 and 106, 106 is the largest side, therefore 106 is the hypotenuse of the triangle whereas 56 and 90 are the legs of the triangles.
