Answer: YES
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Concept</u>
In a right triangle, the square of both legs is equal to the length of hypotenuse squared. This is the Pythagorean theorem: a²+b²=c². For more graphical explanation, please refer to the attachment below.
<u>Given</u>
Leg a = 36 in
Leg b = 48 in
Hypotenuse c = 60 in
<u>Solve</u>
a² + b² = c²
(36)² + (48)² = 3600
(60)² = 3600
3600 = 3600
Therefore, the answer is <u>YES</u>
