Question
Draw a triangle ABC, with AC = 4 cm, BC = 3 cm and ∠C = 105°. Measure AB. Is (AB)2 = (AC)2 + (BC)2? If not, which one of the following is true:
(AB)2 > (AC)2 + (BC)2 or (AB)2 < (AC)2 + (BC)2?

Solution
Draw . Draw a line BC = 3 cm. At point C, draw a line at 105 angle with BC. Take an arc of 4 cm from point C, which will cut the line at point A. Now, join AB, which will be approximately 5.5 cm.
