Question

Tell whether the triangle with the given side lengths is a right triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that If a triangle is a right triangle,

the hypotenuse^2 will equal to shorter^2 + longer^2

hypotenuse = 18, shorter side = 4, longer side = 17

18^2 = 4^2 + 17^2

324 = 16 + 289

324 = 305

That is false, therefore the triangle is not a right triangle
