Answer:
hello , hope this helps you, if it does then kindly make as brainliest.
Step-by-step explanation:
by pythagoras theorem , it means that the largest side is the sum of the squares of sides and then taking its square root.
let's name the sides.
largest side be AB= 5 cm
BC= 4 cm
and AC= 3 cm
using pythagoras theorem
AB^2 = BC^2 + AC^2
taking LHS, AB^2 = 5^2 = 25
taking RHS, BC^2 + AC^2 = 4^2 + 3^2
= 16 + 9 = 25
LHS = RHS
hence it is a right angled triangle
