Question

Helppppppp pleaseeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

Knowing that 3²+4²=5, draw the 3cm side and 4cm side with right angle between them. The 5cm side will fit to form a right triangle.

Option D is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given sides: 2cm, 3cm, 4cm and 5cm. We need to choose the correct option according to converse of the Pythagorean Theorem

The converse of the Pythagorean Theorem is:

If the square of the length of the longest side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle.

Now, if we sum the square of 2 smaller sides, it should be equal to square of longest side.

So, if add:

(3)^2+(4)^2=(5)^2

We get: 9+16=25

25=25

So, the sides of triangle are 3cm, 4cm and 5 cm.

Now, the longest side will be hypotenuse so, 5cm is hypotenuse, 3 cm and 4cm can be base and perpendicular.

And the angle will of 90 degrees will be between base and perpendicular.

So, the correct option is:

Knowing that 3²+4²=5, draw the 3cm side and 4cm side with right angle between them. The 5cm side will fit to form a right triangle.

Option D is correct option.
