Respuesta :

Answer:

3, 4, and 5 make a right triangle (Pythagorean triple). 3 and 4 are the legs, 5 is the hypotenuse. Another example is 9, 12, 15, with 9 & 12 as the legs and 15 as the hypotenuse on a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean triples (measurements are whole numbers) are always in a 3:4:5 ratio; the longest side is always hypotenuse; the right angle is always opposite of the hypotenuse; the legs will be perpendicular (making right angle)
