A triangle has sides of lengths 13, 21, and 24. is it a right triangle? explain

<span>No, it doesn't. To find out if it's a right angled triangle, we use Pythagorean triple. It states that the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the opposite and adjacent sides. Obviously, the longest side, which is our hypotenuse is 24. So we want to find out whether the square of our hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides i. e 13 and 21. 24^ 2 = 576 ; 13^2 = 169 ; 21^2 = 441; So is 576 = 169 + 441. An emphatic No: hence the triangle isn't right angled since it doesn't satisfy pythagorean triple.. A^2 is not equal to B^2 + C^2 where a is the hypotenuse and b and c the opposite and adjacent sides.</span>

okay so you would go down to -8, then the slope would be 4/1 which means to go up four and then over one. then you have the line.

i hope this helps you!

Name the intersection of plane QMW and plane RMW

Norma-Jean [14]

The answer is "C", "MW".

In the given problem, the place QMW and plane RMW. These planes intersect at MW, in which intersection is either a point, line or curve that an entity or entities both possess or is in contact with but if we see in Euclidean<span> geometry, the intersection of two planes is called a “line”. </span>In the plane we can understand that the common line for both plane QMW and plane RMW is MW.
