Longest side of the triangle would be the hypotenuse.

anonymous · Answer

If we look at our trigonometry:
Sin(angle) = Opposite/ Hypotenuse
Cos(angle) = Adjacent/ Hypotenuse
Tan(angle) = Opposite/ Adjacent

anonymous · Answer

Actually this can be done just by looking at the numbers

anonymous · Answer

Since the side JK is opposite to Z you can see that the biggest angle will create the biggest opposite side.

anonymous · Answer

Think of it by using your index finger and middle finger the wider you make the angle between them the wider the opposite side you will make:|dw:1405804887173:dw|
