Question

Which is the right triangle

Answer 1

Using the pythagorean theorem

A) $(\sqrt{2})^{2} + (\sqrt{3})^{2} = (\sqrt{4})^{2}$

2 + 3 = 4

5 = 4

since 5 is not equal to 4 so A is wrong

B)$(\sqrt{8})^{2} + (3)^{2} = (\sqrt{17})^{2}$

8 + 9 = 17

17 = 17

so answer B) is correct

C) $(5)^{2} + (6)^{2} = (8)^{2}$

25 + 36 = 64

61 = 64

since 61 is not equal to 64 so C) is also wrong
