Trigonometry

[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is a leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is the hypotenuse

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify variables

a = 24

b = 10

c = 34

Step 2: Check

Verify ΔLMN is a right triangle

  1. Substitute in variables [Pythagorean Theorem]: 24² + 10² = 34²
  2. Evaluate exponents: 576 + 100 = 1156
  3. Add: 676 ≠ 1156

∴ ΔLMN is not a right triangle
