We can find the solution to the answer by using the Pythagorean Theorem.

a² + b² = c²

4² + 6² = 8²

16 + 36 = 52

8² = 64

52 ≠ 64.

Since 4² + 6² does not equal 8², a triangle with the sides 4, 6, and 8, are not a right triangle.

Answer:

No it's not

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle the longest side is always the Hypotnuse. With legs a and b and Hypotnuse c, all right triangle follow the Pythagoream Theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2)

If this is a right triangle then it should also follow this rule.

8^2=4^2+6^2

64=16+36

64≠52

So this isn't a right triangle

Which of the following is a characteristic of the circumcenter of a triangle
jolli1 [7]

You have not provided the options, therefore, I can not provide an exact answer.

However, I will help you with the concept


In a triangle, the circumcenter is defined as the point of intersection of the three perpendicular bisectors in the triangle


The circumcenter is characterized by the following:

1- The circumcenter is the center point of the circumcircle

2- The circumcenter is equidistant from the three vertices of the triangle

<u>3- Position of circumcenter:</u>

in acute triangle ........> it lies inside the triangle

in right-angles triangle .......> it lies at the midpoint of the hypotenuse

in obtuse triangle ..........> it lies outside the triangle


Hope this helps :)

Answer:

∆BDC ~ ∆EDA

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure in the diagram contained in the question:

=>Angle EDA is congruent to angle BDC

=>Angle E is congruent to angle B

=>Angle A is congruent to angle C

==>Therefore, the similarity statement that can be written to compare the two triangles = ∆BDC ~ ∆EDA

The symbol "~" means "similar to".

Thus, ∆BDC is similar to ∆EDA
