Question

The sides of some triangle are given below. Find out which ones are right angled triangle 1.8;15;17.
2.11;12;6.​

Answer 1

The sides of the given triangle are 8, 15, and 17.

Let us check whether the given set (8, 15, 17) forms a Pythagorean triplet or not.

The biggest number among the given set is 17.

(17)2 = 289; (15)² = 225; (8)² = 64

Now, 225 + 64 = 289

(15)²+ (8)² = (17)

Thus, (8, 15, 17) forms a Pythagorean triplet.[tex][/tex]
