Answer:

Pythagorean Theorem!

Explanation:

If we look at the Pythagorean theory, it states that if you square the two largest sides of a triangle! Another way to see this is by squaring all the side lengths! Once you do that, check if the longest two side lengths are equal to the sum of the SQUARED LENGTHS of the side length (the two longest ones) then it's a right triangle.
