I hope this helps you:)

Answer 2

Let's use proof by contradiction to solve this question.

Assuming the sides of a right triangle can be 10,20, and 30, we procure the

Pythagorean theorem

10^2+20^2=30^2

100+400=900

This equation is false, therefore

10, 20, and 30 cannot be the sides of a right triangle.
