Question

Can a triangle with side lengths of 15, 13, and 6 can be classified as a right triangle? ? and why?​

Answer 1

The triangle cannot be classified as right angled triangle.

Explanation:

Given measurements are;

15, 13 and 6.

In right angle triangle, the sum of square of lengths of smaller sides is equal to square length of larger side.

Therefore,

`(6)^2 + (13)^2 = (15)^2\\36 + 169 = 225\\205 \\eq 225`

Hence,

The triangle cannot be classified as right angled triangle.
