Question

The sides of triangles are given below. Determine
which of them are right triangles:
(a) 6cm, 8cm, 10cm
(b) 8cm, 13m, 12 cm.​

Answer 1

Answer:

opton A is the ans.

hope it is correct

Answer 2

Please mark this answer as brainliest.

Option a) 6cm, 8cm, 10cm

Pythagoras Theorem states that,

(hypotenuse)^2 = (base)^2 + (height)^2

This theorem satisfies the measures in the option a)
• Hypotenuse is the longest side of a right angled triangle.

(10)^2 = (8)^2 + (6)^2

100 = 64 + 36

100 = 100

Hence, it is a right-angled triangle

Whereas this theorem does not satisfy the measures given in option b)

(13)^2 = (12)^2 + (8)^2

169 = 144 + 64

•169 is not equal to 208

Hence it is not a right-angled triangle.

That is why the correct option is option a.
