"yes, a right triangle can be formed because the sum of the areas of the two smaller squares equals the area of the largest square."

Step-by-step explanation:

took the test, got it right. nice day folks. amos @kay_flores575

Right triangle can be formed because the sum of the areas of the two smaller squares equals the area of the largest square.

What is area?

" Area is the space occupied by any two dimensional  object on the flat surface."

What is right angled triangle?

"Right angled triangle is a two dimensional figure with three sides and three vertices . Any one of the interior angle should be equals to 90°."

Formula applied

Pythagoras theorem

a² = b² +c²

According to the question,,

Three square with areas 64inches , 225 inches and 289 inches.

We can write this areas as

  289 = 225 + 64

⇒(17)² = (15)² + (8)²

Applying formula we can say that a right triangle can be formed.

Hence, we conclude that Option B is correct.
