Answer:

Yes. They are Right Triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if the triangles are right triangles, all you need to do is verify whether or not the dimensions satisfy the Pythagoras Theorem.

Pythagoras Theorem:Hypotenuse^2=Opposite^2+Adjacent^2

Note that in a right triangle, the l<u>ongest side is always the hypotenuse.</u>

Given the length of the sides 1.5 feet, 2.0 feet, 2.5 feet

2.5^2=1.5^2+2.0^2\\6.25=2.25+4\\6.25=6.25

Since the Pythagoras theorem holds, the triangles are in fact right triangles.

Which is bigger 3/8 or 0.3
Luba_88 [7]
\frac{3}{8} \\&#10;0.3=\frac{3}{10}

If two fractions have the same numerator, the fraction with the smaller denominator is bigger.
8\ \textless \ 10 \Rightarrow \frac{3}{8} \ \textgreater \  \frac{3}{10}

3/8 is bigger.
