Question

Select all the correct answers.

Based on these sets of side lengths, which triangles are right triangles?
8 units, 15 units, V75 units
08 units, 3 units, V73 units
16 units, 30 units, V50 units
5 units, 7 units, 174 units

Answer 1

08 units, 3 units, V73 units

Explanation:

Pythagoras theorem can be used to determine which sets of side lengths are for a right triangle

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base

c = hypotenuse

8² + 15² = √289

8² + 3² = √73

16² + 30² = √1156

only the second option is correct
