Alaska is the largest state in the Continental US.

Do not get Continental US and Contiguous US confused. Continental US refers to the land on the North American continent (all states but Hawaii). Contiguous US refers to the land between Canada and Mexico (all states but Hawaii and Alaska).

Alaska. HOWEVER...

If you meant to ask what the largest state is in the contiguous United States the answer is Texas.

The term "continental United States" is so misused that many people use it interchangeably with "contiguous United States" ignoring the fact that Alaska is attached to the continent of North America just as much as the "lower 48". So the answer the person asking such a question is looking for is probably Texas.
