Solution

Hi!

Relook: Pythagoras Theorem says that in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the two right-angle sides will always be the same as the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side).

Therefore, Pythagoras Theorem is valid for only right angled triangle.

Hope! You got the answer.

Cheers!
