From given points a)12, 8, 13 and c) 8, 15, 17 will make a right angled triangle
Given:
a).12,8,13 b).8,7,12 c).8,15,17 d).5,4,9
To find:
Check whether given sides can make a right angled triangle
Solution:
From Pythagorean theorem,
If a, b and c are the sides of a right angled triangle where a > b > c then
a² = b²+ c²
Here, a is hypotenuse, b and c are sides
We will use this formula to check whether given sides can make a right angled triangle
a) 12, 8, 13
Here 13 > 12 > 8
⇒ 12² + 8² = 144 + 64 = 169 = 13²
⇒ 12² + 8² = 13²
12,8,13 will form a right angled triangle
b) 8, 7, 12
Here, 12 > 8 > 7
⇒ 8²+ 7² = 64 +49 = 113 12²
8, 7, 12 will not make right angled triangle
c) 8, 15, 17
Here, 17 > 15 > 8
⇒ 15² + 8² = 225 + 64 = 289 = 17²
⇒ 15² + 8² = 17²
8, 15, 17 will make a right angled triangle
d) 5, 4, 9
Here, 9 > 5 > 4
⇒ 5² + 4² = 25 + 16 = 41 9²
5, 4, 9 will not make right angled triangle
From given points a)12, 8, 13 and c) 8, 15, 17 will make a right angled triangle
