Hypotenuse

19linebergejl — 2016-12-18 23:06:54 UTC

In a right triangle, the side opposite of the right angle is the hypotenuse. It is also the longest side of the triangle.

Conditions for HL theorem

19linebergejl — 2016-12-18 23:13:19 UTC

use HL theorem when...
-There are two right triangles
- The triangles have congruent hypotenuses
- There is one pair of congruent legs

segment CA ≅ segment CD

Is triangle CAB congruent to triangle ZXY?
They can not be proven congruent because angle-side-side is not a theorem.
