Question

check whether given sides are the sides of right angled triangle, using Pythagoras theorem 24,45,51​

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes...

Step-by-step explanation:

As 51 is the highest value given, so it can be considered as the hypotenuse. The other two sides can be considered as base and perpendicular respectively.

So, by Pythagoras theorem,

Hypotenuse^2 = Perpendicular^2 + Base^2

Therefore, Hypotenuse^2 = (51)^2 = 2601

Base^2 + Perpendicular^2 = (24)^2 + (45)^2

= 576 + 2025 = 2601

As the Pythagoras theorem is satisfied in this case, so the given sides are that of a right angled triangle
