Question

Patty wants a triangular garden in her backyard to grow vegetables. She plans to use three pieces of edging that measure 7 feet, 10 feet and 8 feet. In at least two complete sentences, answer the following questions: a) Will her garden be in the shape of a right triangle? b)Why or why not?

Answer 1

Answer: Yes.

Step-by-step explanation: With a triangle, the hypotenuse, or the longest side, would be on the bottom. The legs, or the other two sides, pretty much build off of that hypotenuse, which makes it a right triangle.

Have a great day! :)
