Which set of numbers form a right triangle

Setler79 [48]

The answer you are looking for is B. 7, 24, 25.

To find this, you could use Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2). C is the hypotenuse, or the longest side (25 in this case). So you'd do 7^2 + 24^2 = 25^2. Solving for each would give you 49 + 576 = 625. Adding the left side, gives you 625 = 625. Thus probing, this is a right triangle.

I hope this helps!

<h3>Answers:</h3>

14. Each leg is $21\sqrt{2}$ units long.

15 (a). The longer leg is $7\sqrt{3}$ units long

15 (b). The hypotenuse is $14$ units long

=====================================================

Explanations:

For a 45 degree right triangle, aka 45-45-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is equal to sqrt(2) times the short leg. Algebraically we can say

$y = x\sqrt{2}$ where x is the leg and y is the hypotenuse

Let's solve for x

$y = x\sqrt{2}\\\\x\sqrt{2} = y\\\\x = \frac{y}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}*\sqrt{2}} \ \text{rationalizing denominator}\\\\x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\$

Now plug in the given hypotenuse y = 42, this leads to,

$x = \frac{y\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{42\sqrt{2}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{42}{2}\sqrt{2}\\\\x = 21\sqrt{2}\\\\$

---------------------------

For a 30-60-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is double that of the short leg. So the hypotenuse is 2*7 = 14.

The longer leg is equal to sqrt(3) times the short leg. The longer leg is $7\sqrt{3}$
