Answer:  The correct option is (D) SET 4.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are to select the correct set of side lengths that will form a right-angled triangle.

To form a right-angled triangle, we must have the following relation:

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² = Hypotenuse².</em>

<em>Hypotenuse is the length of the largest side; perpendicular and base are the two legs of the triangle.</em>

SET 1 :  14 cm, 5 cm, 6 cm.  

We have

5^2+6^2=25+36=61,\\\\14^2=196.

Therefore,

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² ≠ Hypotenuse².</em>

So, this set will not form a right-angled triangle.

SET 2 :  8 in., 12 in., 20 in.  

We have

8^2+12^2=64+144=208,\\\\20^2=400.

Therefore,

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² ≠ Hypotenuse².</em>

So, this set will not form a right-angled triangle.

SET 3 :  10 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm.  

We have

10^2+20^2=100+400=500,\\\\30^2=900.

Therefore,

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² ≠ Hypotenuse².</em>

So, this set will not form a right-angled triangle.

SET 4 :  12 ft, 16 ft, 20 ft.  

We have

12^2+16^2=144+256=400,\\\\20^2=400.

Therefore,

<em>Perpendicular² + Base² = Hypotenuse².</em>

So, this set will form a right-angled triangle.

Thus, the SET 4 will form a right-angles triangle.

Option (D) is correct.

The cost of fencing a circular field at the rate of Rs.24 per metre is Rs. 5280.
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

radius = 35.03 m

Step-by-step explanation:

5280/24 = circumference = 220 m

220 /Pi = diameter = 70.06 m

70.06/2 = radius = 35.03 m
