Which three lengths form a right triangle?
A 8 cm, 15 om,
17 cm .
B. 10 cm, 17 cm, 18 cm
C. 13 cm, 14 cm, 15 cm
D. 13 cm, 15 cm, 28 cm

Respuesta :

Answer: the answer is c. 13cm, 14cm, 15cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths are 8cm , 15cm and 17 cm

A right angle triangle follows the Pythagorean theorem. Therefore, it should be

  • c² = a² + b²

where

c = hypotenuse

a and  b are  opposite and adjacent sides.

The hypotenuse is the longest side of a right angle triangle. The 3 lengths that follows this theorem are 8 cm, 15 cm and 17cm.

where,

c = 17 cm

8 and 15 are a and b

17² = 8² + 15²

289 = 64 + 225
