A "Pythagorean triple" is a set of 3 numbers that fits the Pythagorean Theorem.

So your question is: "Do 2, 6, and 8 form a Pythagorean triple ?", and the answer

is either 'yes' or 'no'.

(2)2 = 4

(6)2 = 36

4 + 36 = 40

(8)2 = 64

40 is not equal to 64.

So the answer is "no".

6 8 9 use Pythagorean theorem to determine if this a right angle?

One leg of a right triangle measures 6 and the other leg measures 8 how long is the hypotenuse?

The important thing here is that it's a right triangle. Since it is, you can use the Pythagorean theorem. The Pythagorean theorem is as follows... (Length of leg)^2 + (Length of leg)^2 = (Hypotenuse)^2 6^2 + 8^2 = h^2 36 + 64 + h^2 100 = h^2 (Now extract the root from both sides) 10=h

Can a triangle with side lengths of 6 meters 8 meters and 10 meters be a right triangle?

The Pythagorean theorem says; a^2 + b^2 = c^2 a = 6 b = 6 c = 10 6^2 + 8^2 = 100 could be a right triangle


What is the altitude of an equilateral triangle with 12cm sides?

6 * sqrt(3) cm. This should be trivially obvious from the Pythagorean theorem.


One leg of a right triangle measures 6 and the other leg measures8 how long is the hypotenuse?

Pythagorean Theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse c =sqrt(6^2 + 8^2) c = sqrt(100) = 10
