Millennium Park has an outdoor concert theater. Before a concert, the area reserved for special seating is roped off in the shape of a triangle as shown below. How can the converse of the Pythagorean theorem help you determine whether the roped off area is in the shape of a right triangle? (2 points)

Answer:

The converse of Pythagorean Theorem states:

If the square length of the longes side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, then it's a right triangle.

We use the converse of Pythagorean Theorem to prove that a triangle is a right triangle. It's like the inverse use of the theorem. Often, this theorem is used to find the length of a side of a triangle when we already know it's a right triangle. However, when we don't know that is a right triangle, we use the converse to prove it.

To determine whether the roped-off area is a right-angled triangle, use the Pythagorean Theorem below to see if the sum of the square of two sides equals the square of the third.

What is Pythagorean Theorem?

The Pythagorean theorem states that the total of the squares on the legs of a right-angled triangle equals the square on the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)—or,

in more common algebraic form,

b² + a² = c². Where C is the Hypothenus.
