Question

B) Sanjeev draws a triangle with its sides as 6cm, 8cm and 10cm. Is the

triangle drawn by Sanjeev a right angled triangle? Why?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Use Pythagorean's theorem. If the sides satisfies Pythagorean theorem, then, they form a right angled triangle.

The longest side is hypotenuse.

Hypotenuse² = base² + altitude²

10² = 6² +8²

100 = 36 + 64

100 = 100

So, 6cm, 8cm, 10 cm makes an right angles triangle.
