Question

Do the following side lengths form a right triangle: 9, 10, 13.45?

Answer 1

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

using pythagorean theorem to check it

a^2+b^2=c^2???

9^2+10^2=13.45^2?

181≠180.9

it's almost there though :)

Answer 2

To determine if a right triangle is formed by three side lengths, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem

$a^{2}$ + $b^{2}$ = $c^{2}$

Let's identify our values.

a = 9

b = 10

c = 13.5

81 + 100 = 181

181 ≠ 182.25-
