I’m guessing number 32 is true, since it asks you to round to the nearest integer.

To solve this problem, use the Pythagorean Theorem, which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where c is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse of the triangle is always the longest side, meaning the hypotenuse would be 15.23.

To ensure these measurements can be used in order to make a right triangle, substitute the numbers into the Pythagorean Theorem.

6^2 + 14^2 = 15.23^2.

36 + 196 = 231.9529

232 = 231.9529

Because we were asked to round, that makes the equation 232 = 232, meaning the answer is true.
