The largest type of living whale is the Blue Whale. It is possible that there might have been another type of whale that was bigger but is now extinct - however the largest known extinct whales such as Basilosaurus - a whale-like cetacean - 40-65 ft (12-20 m) and Livyatan melvillei - an extinct toothed whale from the Miocene - 13.5-17.5 meters, were still smaller than the Blue Whale - up to 29.9 metres (98 ft).
