Answer:

A)

Explanation:

The theorem states that if a right triangle has two sides equal to a and b, and a hypotenuse equal to c, then a squared plus b squared equals c squared.

the square of the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.
