Jimmy draws a triangle with sides of length 4, 10, and 8. He says that his triangle is acute because when you square the sides and use the pythagorean theorem, 16+ 100 64. Therefore the third side is "too small" to be the hypotenuse, making the triangle acute. You agree or disagree with jimmy? Explain and justify your answer.
