Question

it is possible to have a triangle whose side measures 3 cm 4 cm, and 6 cm? give reason to support your answer ​

Answer 1

Statement of Pythagoras Theorem:

In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. 

As the sides are 3cm,4cm,6cm the hypotenuse will be the largest among all, that is 6cm

3²+4²=9+16=25....(1)

6²=36....... (2)

(1)≠(2)

Hence the triangle is not a right-angled triangle.
