Answer: c) never

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem evaluates the relationship between the three sides of a right triangle. The two legs squared and then added together make up the squared value of the hypotenuse. So basically, a^2+b^2=c^2. This means that c (which is always the hypotenuse) will always be longer than the legs of a right triangle.
