In a right triangle, the two shorter sides that connect to the right angle are known as the legs, while the longest side, which is opposite the right angle, is called the hypotenuse. In this case, the legs would be \( \overline{A B} \) and \( \overline{B C} \), while \( \overline{A C} \) serves as the hypotenuse since it's opposite the right angle. When identifying sides in problems like this, a common mistake is to confuse the lengths of the legs with that of the hypotenuse. Always remember, the hypotenuse is the longest side in a right triangle, so if you visualize or sketch it out, the longest line segment will clearly be the hypotenuse, making it easy to avoid any mix-ups!
