Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

3 , 4 & 5 are Pythagorean Triplet numbers. When lengths of a triangle's 3 sides are Pythagorean Triplet , the triangle is a right angled triangle.

The triangle will be a right angled triangle only when the hypotenuse will have length of 5 and other 2 sides will have length of either 3 or 4.

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf Yes, \ the \ side \ lengths \ 3, \ 4, \ and \  5\ can \  make \   a \ right \ triangle}}

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangle is a right triangle, then the sides will check out in the <u>Pythagorean Theorem. </u>

a^2+b^2=c^2

Where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the legs and <em>c</em> is the hypotenuse.

1. Define Sides

The legs are the 2 shorter sides and the hypotenuse is the longest.

The sides given are 3, 4 (shorter), and 5 (longest). Therefore:

a=3 \\b=4 \\c=5

2. Check the Sides in the Theorem

Substitute the values into the theorem.

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

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Addition, and Subtraction.

Solve all of the exponents first.

  • (3)² = 3*3= 9
  • (4)²= 4*4= 16

9+16=(5)^2

  • (5)²= 5*5= 25

9+16=25

Add the numbers on the left side of the equation.

25=25

This is <u>true.</u> 25 is equal to 25, so this triangle <u>can be a right triangle.</u>
