To determine if these three sides form a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. In a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In this case, we have 6^2 + 9^2 = 36 + 81 = 117 and 12^2 = 144. Since 117 is not equal to 144, these three sides (6cm, 9cm, 12cm) do not form a right triangle.

If a right triangle has sides of 16Cm and 12Cm what is the hypotenuse?
If a right triangle has sides of 16Cm and 12Cm, the hypotenuse is: 20 cm
What is the area triangle 5cm 12cm 13cm?
30 square cm because it's a right angle 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.
What shape has an area of 6cm but perimeter of 12cm?
A right angle triangle fits the dimensions given
Is it possible to create a triangle with side lengths 12cm 7cm and 5cm?
No because the sum of the smaller sides must be greater than the longest side
