Answer:

Answer :-

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that the given triangle is a right-angled triangle

Here, we are given that

Hypotenuse(h) = 6cm (hypotenuse is the longest side)

Base(b) = 3cm

Altitude(a) = 4cm

According to the Pythagoras theorem, for a given right triangle,

Hypotenuse2 = Altitude2 + Base2

Thus as per the given dimensions,

h2 = a2 + b2

⇒ h2 = 3² + 4² = 9 +16 = 25

According to given hypotenuse h,

h2 = 62 = 36

Since they do not match, we cannot have a right triangle with these measures.

Hence, it is not a right-angled triangle as the given dimensions (3cm, 4cm, and, 6cm) of the triangle do not satisfy the Pythagoras theorem.

Hope it helps !!! :)
