Question

Which of the following measurements could be the side lengths of a right triangle?

Answer 1

For this case we have that every rectangle traingule complies with the Pythagorean theorem:

$c = \sqrt {a ^ 2 + b ^ 2}$

Where:

c: It is the hypotenuse

b: It's the base

a: It's the height

It is noted that if we replace:

$a = 66\\b = 88\\c = \sqrt {66 ^ 2 + 88 ^ 2}\\c = 110$

So, we have $c = 110 \ in ^ 2$

If we evaluate the other options we will obtain wrong results.

Thus, a rectangle triangle can have measurements of:

66 in, 88 in and 110 in respectively

Answer:

Option b
