If a² + b² = c², then which of the following are also true? Select all that apply

Options
a² - b² = c²
b² + a² = c²
c² + a² = b²
c² - a² = b²
c² - b² = a²

Answer 1

Option 2 , 4 & 5 are true.

Explanation:

● Option 2 is equivalent to a² + b² = c².

● Option 4 & 5 can be found by :-

• Substracting a² from both the L.H.S. & R.H.S. (It will match with Option 4)
• Or substracting b² from both the L.H.S & R.H.S. (It will match with Option 5)
