...the perpendicular, the side AC the hypothenuse, and the angle at B is a right angle. Base. ART. 272. In every right angled triangle the square of the hypothenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the base and perpendicular, as shown by the following diagram. It will be seen by examining... | |
