ABC has side lenths 20, 24, and 31. Do the side lenghts form a Pythagorean triple?

1 answer:

4 0

No they don't.
Phythagorean triple is when the sum of the squares of two numbers is equal to the square of another number.

20^2 + 24^2 = 400 + 576 = 976
31^2 = 961

20^2 + 24^2 should have been equal to 31^2 but that's not the case. So, the side's length don't form a triple.

Hope it helped!

PLEASE HELP ME PLEASE!!

Harman [31]

Answer:

hypotenuse (h)=?

perpendicular (p)=3

base(b)=2

using pythagoras theorem

h²=p²+b²

h²=3²+2²

h²=9+4

h²=13

h=√13

hypotenuse (h)=12
perpendicular (p)=10
base(b)=?

using pythagoras theorem

b²=h²-p²

b²=12²-10²

b²=144-100

b=√44

b=2√11
