Which side lengths form a right triangle?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Masja [62]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: choice B

Explanation: Go through each answer choice and try the Pythagorean theorem to see if it works. This is because a right triangle’s side lengths are described by the Pythagorean theorem. one side^2 + second side^2 = longest side^2. In a right triangle, this equation will be true. Let me show you what I mean

For answer choice A:

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

2 + 3 = 4

5 = 4

5 does not equal 4. Therefore it cannot be A.

For answer choice B:

(root 8)^2 + (3)^2 = (root 17)^2

8 + 9 = 17

17 = 17

this is true! therefore this is a right triangle and it’s B

Please I need help with this and show your steps
Lorico [155]

Answer:

-30/15 or -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2+8 = 10

3+2 = 5

14-2 = 12

4-1 = 3

10/5 - 12/3

(Find GCF)(GCF = 15)(5 times 3)

30/15 (10/5 times 3)

60/15 (12/3 times 5)

30/15 - 60/15 = -30/15 --> -2(simplified to 2)
