For ∆RNM ~ ∆RPQ
=> RN/RP = RM/RQ
=> 7/8 = 10/14 which is wrong
So ∆RMN is not similar to ∆RQP
Answer: d
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Square all three numbers. If the largest number squared is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two, then the numbers form a Pythagorean triple.
<u><em>or</em></u>
Since a Pythagorean triple is three positive integers a, b, and c such that (a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2), first take the sum of the squares of the two legs and make an estimate. For example, 3, 4, and 5 is a Pythagorean triple since 9+16=25
<u><em>either one works</em></u>
