RIGHT
SIDE LENGTHS
PROOF
TRIANGLE?
12, 24, 36
16, 9, 11
20, 29, 21
12.5, 7.5, 10

Answer 1

Answer: All of them are No

Step-by-step explanation: a^2+b^2=c^3

Answer 2

12² + 24² = 36²

144 + 576 = 1296

720 ≠ 1296

12, 24, 36: NOT a right triangle

16² + 9² = 11²

256 + 81 = 121

337 ≠ 121

16, 9, 11: NOT a right triangle

20² + 29² = 21²

400 + 841 = 441

1241 ≠ 441

20, 29, 21: NOT a right triangle

12.5² + 7.5² = 10²

156.25 + 56.25 = 100

212.5 ≠100

12.5, 7.5, 10: NOT a right triangle
