10-1 The Pythagorean Theorem
1. Circle each right angle below.
2. Underline the correct word or number to complete each sentence.
A right angle has a measure of 60 / 90 / 180 degrees.
Lines that meet at a right angle are parallel / perpendicular lines.
An angle that measures less than a right angle is called a(n) acute / obtuse angle.

hypotenuse (noun) hy pah tuh noos
Related Word: leg
Definition: In a right triangle, the longest side is the hypotenuse.
Main Idea: The legs of a right triangle form the right angle. The hypotenuse is across from, or opposite, the right angle.
Use Your Vocabulary
Write T for true or F for false.
3. The hypotenuse is the longest side in a right triangle.
4. The hypotenuse of the triangle at the right has length 12 cm.
5. The legs of a right triangle can be any two of the three sides.
6. One leg of the triangle at the right has length 16 cm.
