Answer: No, we don't have a right triangle
==========================================================
Explanation:
If a triangle with sides a,b,c makes the equation a^2+b^2 = c^2 true, where c is the longest side, then this triangle is a right triangle. This is the converse of the pythagorean theorem.
Here we have a = 2, b = 5 and c = 7.
So...
a^2+b^2 = c^2
2^2+5^2 = 7^2
4+25 = 49
29 = 49
The last equation is false, so the first equation is false for those a,b,c values. Therefore, we do <u>not</u> have a right triangle.

In contrast, consider the classic 3-4-5 right triangle
a = 3, b = 4 and c = 5 would make a^2+b^2 = c^2 true because 3^2+4^2 = 5^2 is a true equation (both sides lead to 25).

Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle can be calculated with the formula:
The base of the triangle is "b" and the height of the triangle is "h",
In the figure you can observe that the base and the height of the triangle are:
Knowing these values, you can substitute them into .
Therefore, the area of the triangle is:
