Question

ing sides of right triangles
complete the table to show the name of each side of the right triangle when you consider angles a and b.
opposite side
opposite side
adjacent side
adjacent side
hypotenuse
hypotenuse

Explanation:

Step1: Define opposite and adjacent for ∠A

The side opposite ∠A is the side not forming ∠A and across from it, which is $a$. The adjacent side to ∠A is the non - hypotenuse side forming ∠A, which is $b$. The hypotenuse is $c$.

Step2: Define opposite and adjacent for ∠B

The side opposite ∠B is the side not forming ∠B and across from it, which is $b$. The adjacent side to ∠B is the non - hypotenuse side forming ∠B, which is $a$. The hypotenuse remains $c$.

Answer:

	$a$	$b$	$c$
$\angle B$	Adjacent Side	Opposite Side	Hypotenuse
