Across
  1. 4. Two angles that sum of measures equal 90 degreesIn a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the legs (2 shorter sides) is equal to the square of the hypotenuse - which is the longest side.
  2. 6. The side opposite the right angle; the side facing the reference angle; the leg across from the angle
  3. 7. The side next to the reference angle; the leg next to the angle; the side next to the reference angle in a right triangle
  4. 9. In a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the legs (2 shorter sides) is equal to the square of the hypotenuse - which is the longest side.
  5. 11. In a right triangle, the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle divided by the hypotenuse; the opposite leg divided by the hypotenuse; the ratio of length of opposite divided by the hypotenuse
  6. 13. The angle between the horizontal and the line of sight to an object below the horizontal
  7. 14. A Greek symbol commonly used to represent an unknown angle
  8. 15. An angle of 90 degrees, a square is a symbol that shows you have a right angle
Down
  1. 1. The longest side of a right triangle
  2. 2. A triangle containing one angle that measures exactly 90 degrees
  3. 3. In a right triangle, the ratio of the length of the side adjacent to the angle divided by the hypotenuse; the adjacent leg divided by the hypotenuse; the ratio of length of adjacent divided by hypotenuse
  4. 5. A branch of mathematics that deal with the relationships between the sides of angles of triangles and the calculations based on these relationships
  5. 8. A ratio that describes a relationship between the sides and angles of a right triangle
  6. 10. The angle between the horizontal and the line of sight to an object above the horizontal
  7. 12. In a right triangle, the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle divided by the length of the adjacent side; the opposite leg divided by the adjacent leg; the ratio of length of opposite divided by adjacent
