To find if it's a right triangle, we use the Pythagorean Theorem of a² + b² = c² where a and b are the legs of the triangle (the shorter measurements) and c is the hypotenuse (the biggest measurement).
28² + 34² = 43²
784 + 1156 = 1849
1940 ≠ 1849
No. This is not a right triangle. The sum of the squares of the shorter measurements (AKA the legs) do not equal the square of the biggest measurement.

Answer:
EB = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, you can use the power of a point, in the situation where two secants intersect in the interior of a circle. The formula is as follows:
CE * ED = AE * EB
(This is applied specifically to this problem)
We can substitute the values given,
5 * (x - 4) = 3 * x
simplify,
5x - 20 = 3x
and solve.
2x - 20 = 0
2x = 20
x = 10
Since the value of EB is x, EB = 10.
