A right triangle or right-angled triangle, sometimes called an orthogonal triangle or rectangular triangle, is a triangle in which two sides are perpendicular, forming a right angle ( 1⁄4 turn or 90 degrees). The side opposite to the right angle is called the hypotenuse (side in the figure). The sides adjacent to the right angle are called legs . Wikipedia
