A right triangle has the two legs that form an angle of 90°, which means that the two legs are perpendicular.
In order to prove that FGH is a right triangle, you need to calculate the slopes of the lines passing through its vertexes and see if there is a pair of opposite reciprocals: m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
m(FG) = (-9 - 4) / (5 - 2) = -13/3 m(FH) = (-4 - 4) / (-3 - 2) = 8/5 m(HG) = (-4 -(-9)) / (-3 - 5) = -5/8 Since m(FH) and m(HG) are opposite reciprocals, FH is perpendicuar to HG and FGH is a right triangle.
