To test if this is a right triangle, let's test these side lengths with the Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

c is the hypotenuse, the longest side of a right triangle.
a and b are the legs of the right triangle.

a = 7
b = 15
c = 17

7^2 + 15^2 = 17^2 ?

49 + 225 = 289 ?

274 ≠ 289

Thus, this triangle is not a right triangle since it does not satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem.

Have an awesome day! :)

Is this equation a true statement when x = 6?<br>-2 + 11 - 5x = 5 -6x​
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we already know the value of x lets plug it in and multiply it

-2+11-5(6)=5-6(6)

-2+11-30=5-36

Now lets put them together

9-30=5-36

-21 = -31

Making x=6 false
