Question

The side lengths of a triangle are 5, 3, and 4. Is this a right triangle?

A. Yes, because 32 +
*#2352
B. Yes, because 32 + 42 = 52,
O C. No, because 32 +42 + 52.
D. No, because 3+ 4+5.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given that,

The side lengths of a triangle are 5,3 and 4.

For a right triangle, the Pythagoras theorem is applicable. We know that, for a right triangle,

`H^2=b^2+h^2`

Where

H is Hypotenuse

b is base

h is perpendicular height

If we put b = 3. h = 4, then

`H^2=3^2+4^2\\\\H^2=9+16\\\\H=5`

Hence, it will form a right triangle.
