Question

A set of sides that creates a right triangle has sides in a ratio of 5 : 12 :13. Find two different sets of sides in feet that would create a right triangle using this ratio.

Answer 1

10 : 24 : 26

15 : 36 : 39

Explanation:

You can multiply all numbers in the ratio to find equivalent ratios that would function as different sets of sides because it's just a larger version of the 5: 12 : 13 triangle
