Braniest and Extra Points will be given!!!!! Choose an option from both parenthesis!!!

In order to use the Pythagorean Theorem, you must know the length or lengths of (all three sides/any 2 sides/any side) of the triangle and know that the measure of one of the angles is (greater than 90°/exactly 90°/less than 90°) .

Answer:

a) Any 2 sides

b) exactly 90°

Explanation:

The point of the Pythagorean Theorem is to find the length of the hypotenuse using 2 sides.

This only works for right triangles.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

1) any two sides

2)exactly 90 degrees

Explanation:

1) The pythagorean theorem only applies to right angle triangles

since right angle triangles measure 90 degrees exactly we will choose exactly 90 as an option.

2) so the formula for pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2 where

a=side 1

b= side 2

c=hypotenuse(biggest side)

to find the hypotenuse you need to know both the values of a and b hence we will take the option "any two sides"
