Question 952281: If ∆ABC is a right scalene triangle and ∠C is the right angle, BC is the longest side, true or false? Found 2 solutions by Alan3354, EdenWolf:Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let us draw the triangle. We can draw it two ways. (This is a scalene triangle because none of the sides are exactly the same length.)
In a triangle, the hypotenuse is the longest side. This is not the case here, thus it is false.
