the right triangle must have to respect the Pythagoras Theorem

we have the next sides

a=6

b=8

c=10

the square of the sun of minor sides need to be equal to the square of the greater side

in this case


10^2=6^2+8^2
10^2=100^{}


6^2+8^2=36+64=100

so the equality is true, so we can say YES it is a right triangle
