Question

A triangle has sides with lengths of 6 inches, 13 inches, and 17 inches. Is it a right triangle?

Answer 1

Answer:

Nope

Step-by-step explanation:

To now if a triangle is a right angle, use Pythagoras Theorem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

C usually be the longest side of the triangle, C = 17

Then also let a and b be 6 and 13 respectively.

6^2 + 13^2 =205

C^2 = 205

C = sqrt(205) = 14.32

therefore no this is not a right angle triangle
