Question

Which set of numbers could represent the side lengths of a right triangle? A. 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 B. 1.8, 2.4, 3 3, 8, 10 D. 5, 7, 12​

Answer 1

B. 1.8, 2.4, 3

Explanation:

You can make use of pythagore to prove each of the given options and you'll see that B is the correct answer:

A)
`\sqrt{0.1^(2)+0.2^(2)}=0.22`

B)
`\sqrt{1.8^(2)+2.4^(2)}=3`

C)
`\sqrt{3^(2)+8^(2)}=8.54`

D)
`\sqrt{5^(2)+7^(2)}=8.6`
