A triangle is inside a trapezoid. Is the

triangle a right triangle? Explain.

10 in.
V181 in.
9 in.

Answer 1

The triangle is right since it satisfies the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

10^2 + 9^2 = (sqrt181)^2
100 + 81 = 182
181 = 181 :)

Answer 2

Answer: The triangle is a right triangle, as it has a right angle.
