Question

Tell whether the triangle with the given side lengths is a right triangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

It is a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Base of the triangle = b = 10.5 feet

Hypotenuse of the triangle= h = 14.5 feet

Perpendicular of the triangle = p = 10 feet

According to Pythagoras  theorem;

$h^{2}=p^{2} +b^{2}$

$14.5^{2}=10^{2} +10.5^{2}$

$210.25=100+110.25$

$210.25=210.25$

As both side is equal, so it is a right triangle.
