Question

In a triangle, sum of squares of two sides is equal to the square of the third side. State whether the statement is True or False.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Explanation for correct option:

Explanation of Pythagoras theorem.

According to the definition of Pythagoras theorem, if a triangle is a right angle triangle then,

${\left(\text{Perpendicular}\right)}^2+{\left(\text{Base}\right)}^2={\left(\text{Hypotenuse}\right)}^2$.

So, the given statement is false because it is not given that the triangle is a right-angled triangle.

Hence, the correct option is False.
