Question

The following triplets from the length in cm of the sides of a triangle. State which of them are right angled triangles :
i) 8,10,6 ii)5,12,13

Answer 1

Answer:

i) 8, 10, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Pythagoras Theorem

(Hypotenuse)² = (Perpendicular)² + (Base)²

∴ 10² = 8² + 6²

⇒ 100 = 64 + 36

⇒ 100 = 100

Hence i) is a right angled triangle
