If they are, then the square of the largest is equal to the sum of the squares

of the other two.

42 = 16

52 = 25

16 + 25 = 41

62 = 36

36 is not equal to 41. So the Pythagorean relationship doesn't apply to

these three numbers, and they can't be the sides of a right triangle.

Which of the following could be the side measures of a right triangle?

There are no numbers on that list that could be the sides of a right triangle. Oh, all right. The following is the answer:

Why the following triangle with sides 2.5 6.5 and 6 is a right angle triangle or not?

It is a right angle triangle because it complies with Pythagoras' theorem.


Would the following set of sides build a triangle 4 4 5?

Yes. If the sum of the length of the two smaller sides are greater than the length of the larger side and none of the lengths of any of the sides equals 0, then it is a triangle. It is not, however, an equilateral triangle or right triangle (that would be 5, 4, 3), though it is an isosceles triangle.

How do you determine if a triangle is a right triangle?

For a right angled triangle, sum of squares of two sides of a triangle equals square of the third side. For example - In triangle ABC, AB2 + BC2 = AC2


A triangle has sides of lengths 6 2 and 7 is it a right triangle?

No. For a right angle triangle, the sum of the squares of the shorter sides equals the square of the longer side (the hypotenuse): 22 + 62 = 40 72 = 49

How many sides does a right triangle have?

Any triangle has three sides, whether it is a right triangle or not.


How can you determine whether a triangle is a right triangle if you only know the lengths of the sides?

If it is a right angled triangle it will conform to Pythagoras' Theorm: The square of the hypotenuse = the sum of the squares on the other two sides. The hypotenuse would be the longest side, so add the two shorter sides squared together and if this equals the longest side squared then the triangle is a right angle triangle.


Who has more sides a right triangle or equilateral?
