If the sum of the squares of the shortest two sides is equal to the third squared then it is a right triangle. Examples are 3,4,5 and 5,12,13 and 7,24,25 and multiples of these.

Could side lenghts 335665 make a right triangle?
If you mean lengths of 33 by 56 by 65 then the given dimensions will form a right angle triangle.
Is scalene triangle cannot contain a right triangle?
A scalene triangle CAN also be a right triangle. For a triangle to be scalene, all 3 sides must be of different lengths. If you draw a triangle with a 90 degree right angle (ie. a right triangle) you will see that it's very easy for the sides to be unequal lenghts.
Can a 3 sided shape with lenghts of 8 cm 7cm and 15cm be a scalene triangle?
A triangle with those measurements would just form a straight line.
The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 26 feet longone leg of the triangle is 14 feet longer than the other leg find the lenghts of the legs of the triangle?
This is merely a doubling of the 5-12-13 triangle. The sides are 10 and 24 ft.
A triangle has two sides of lenghts 5 and 13?
Yes, that is certainly possible.

Would a triangle with the given side lenghts of 14 18 and seven make a right triangle?
Pythagorean thm: a2+b2=c2 72+ 142= 49+196=245 182= 324 Therefore NO; not a rt triangle
A triangle has two sides of lenghts 5 and 13?
Yes, that is certainly possible.
What is the two sides of a right triangle that form a right angle?
They are the "legs" of the triangle.
How can you determine whether a triangle is a right triangle if you only have the lengths of its three sides?
The pathagoren theorm states that a2+ b2 = c2. If you put your lenghts into the equation and it comes out true (100=100), then the triangle is a right trianlge. If it is a false equation (100=30), then it is not a right triangle. Where a = lenght of leg 1, b = lenght of leg 2, and c = lenght of hypotenuse.
What has Pythagoras accomplished?
he came up with the Pythagoras theorem: a2+b2=c2 a and be are the lenghts of a triangle and c is the hypotenuse (the longest side of a right triangle) he also said learn the answer to a problem gives a new question.
How do you measure the perimeter of a scalene triangle?
Measure the length of each side.Add the lenghts together.
What is the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle that has legs with lenghts of 5 and 4?
It's 6,40312. 4²+5²= hypotenuse ² 16+25=hypotenuse ² 41=hypotenuse ² |√ 6,40312=hypotenuse
What is a triangle that the sides form right angles?
Well, in order for a shape to be a triangle, it can only have one right angle. Therefore, it is called a right triangle.
