Answer:

Not a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can tell if it's a right triangle or not by using the Pythagorean Theorem.

The largest value is always the hypotenuse (c).

a² + b² = c²

24² + 70² = 75²

576 + 4900 = 5625

5476 ≠ 5625

The values do not equal one another. Therefore, this triangle is NOT a right triangle.

The pythagorean theorem holds for every right triangle: given the legs $a, b$ and the hypothenuse $c$ , the triangle is right if and only if

$a^2+b^2=c^2$

So, you have to check:

$30^2+45^2=2925\neq 2500 = 50^2$

So the first triangle can't be a right triangle.

$30^2+40^2=2500= 50^2$

So the second triangle is a right triangle.

The third triangle can't be right, because it has the same legs but a different hypothenuse

Finally, we have

$25^2+40^2=2225= 50^2$

So the last triangle can't be a right triangle.

Indicate the equation of the line meeting the given conditions. Please put the equation in standard form. Containing A (1, 3) an

wolverine [178]

A line through two points A, B can be found by the point-slope form of the formula:

(y-ya)=m(x-xa)............(1)
and
m=(yb-ya)/(xb-xa).......(2)

where A(xa,ya), B(xb,yb) and m is the slope between points A & B.

Substituting
A(xa,ya)=A(1,3)
B(xb,yb)=B(0,2)

From (2)
m=(yb-ya)/(xb-xa)
=(2-3)/(0-1)
=-1/(-1)
=1

Substitute in (1) : (y-ya)=m(x-xa)
y-3=1(x-1)
Distribute and simplify
y=x-1+3=x+2
or
y=x+2 .................(3a) equation required in slope-intercept form

x-y+2=0...............(3b) equation in standard form

Triangles J K L and X Y Z are shown. Angles K J L and Y X Z are right angles. The length of Y X is 10. The length of hypotenuse

pickupchik [31]

ΔJKL and ΔXYZ CANNOT be congruent triangles because: the hypotenuse of one triangle is equal in length to the leg of the other triangle.

<h3>What are Congruent Triangles?</h3>

Congruent triangles are triangles whose corresponding sides are congruent to each other.

The hypotenuse of triangle JKL(KL = 10) is congruent to a leg of triangle XYZ (YX = 10). This implies that they cannot be congruent triangles.

Therefore, ΔJKL and ΔXYZ CANNOT be congruent triangles because: the hypotenuse of one triangle is equal in length to the leg of the other triangle.
