Answer: only this
[2,3,√13]
2² + 3² = 13
side is√13 this satisfies
if you take
5,5,2√10
5² + 5² ≠ (2√10)²[40]
this is not possible
or if you take
(2√10)² + 5² ≠ 5² this is also not possible
if you take 5,12,15 this is not a Pythagorean triplet
5,12,13 can form a right angled triangle but this cannot
only the first one can form a right angled triangle
aaronsams:
{2, 3, square root 13] {5, 5, 2squar root 10] {5, 12, 15} are the answers

first one has only two sides so it can't be a triangle
second one has two equal sides as the maximum length and in right triangle there is only one longest side I.e. hypotenuse
third one has 5, 12, 15
so, 15^2 should be equal to 5^2 + 12^2, which is not possible..... (Pythagoras theorem)
neither of the three are sides of a right triangle....
Hope this helps..... plsss make it the brainliest
