Question

Which of the following sets of numbers could represent the three sides of a right

triangle?
{45, 59,75}
{38,52,65}
{43,56,70}
{35, 84,91}

Answer 1

Therefore {35, 84,91} is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a right angle triangle: (short side)² + (short side)² = (long side)²

solving:

{45, 59,75}

45² + 59² = 75²

5506 = 5625

{38,52,65}

38² + 52² = 65²

4148 = 4225

{43,56,70}

43² + 56² = 70²

4985 = 4900

{35, 84,91}

35² + 84² = 91²

8281 = 8281
