Question

can a right triangle have sides that measure 5cm,12cm and 13cm.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

yes 13 will hypotenous of triangle and 12,5 will base and perpendicular

then it will be right triangle

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

According to pythagorus theorem, in a right angled triangle,  a2 + b2 = c2

5 squared = 25

12 squared = 144

13 squared = 169 (where 13 is the hypotenuse)

144 + 25 = 169

So yes, it is possible for a right angled triangle with measurements 5cm, 12cm and 13cm to exist.
