Question

This set of 3 numbers are measurements of a right triangle. 10,8,6

True
False​

Answer 1

True

Explanation:

**plug it in using the Pythagorean Theorem**

6^2+8^2= 10^2

36+64=100

100=100 (true)

Answer 2

True

Explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

We can prove that it is a right triangle by using the Pythagorean Theorem. We have the hypotenuse as 10 and our legs as 8 and 6:

8² + 6² = 10²

64 + 36 = 100

100 = 100

So, 6-8-10 is a Pythagorean Triple.
