Answer:
A, B, and C are labeled for each side of a right triangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
A and B are used to label the legs while C is used to label the hypotenuse(AKA the long side of a right triangle and the side opposite of the 90° angle.) The B side is the opposite side of the hypotenuse or the side C. The A is the bottom leg that is in between sides B and C.
a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse.
hope this helps!
