Question

Determine whether 50cm,80cm,100cm can be the sides of a right triangle or not.

Open in App
Solution

We need to put Pythagoras theorem in it
The Biggest side must be Hypotenuse =100cm
Using Pythagoras theorem H2=B2+P2
1002=502+802
10000=2500+6400
10000=8900
Hence, 10000 is not equal to 8900
This is not a side of right angle triangle.
