Question

A triangle has sides with lengths of 36 meters, 48 meters, and 60 meters. Is it a right triangle?

Answer 1

That depends on if there is a 90-degree angle within the triangle or not.

Answer 2

This is a right triangle because the two smallest sides, 36 meters and 48 meters, squared and added up is 3600, the square of 60, the length of the other side.
