Oh, that's a happy little question! To find out if those measurements make a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. If the square of the longest side (the hypotenuse) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, then it's a right triangle. Let's calculate and see if these numbers create a beautiful right triangle on our canvas.

Could these be side measurements for a right triangle 5 12 13?

Yes because they comply with Pythagoras' theorem.


Could measurements 5 12 13 be a right triangle?

yes.the property of right angled triangle is that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of other two sides thus (5*5)+(12*12)=169=(13*13)

Yes, because they comply with Pythagoras' theorem for a right angle triangle.


Do these three sides make a right triangle 5 5 3?

3, 5, 5 does not make a right angle triangle but they can make an isosceles triangle Correct. Try 3,4,5. That will be a right triangle. 3x3 plus 4x4 = 5x5


Can a right triangle have sides of length 17 and 5 squre roots of 2?

No but the dimensions would be applicable to an isosceles triangle


What 3 measurements make a right triangle?

There are many sets of side lengths that will make a right triangle. Try 3-4-5 or any multiple of those like 6-8-10. Another common one is 5-12-13 or a multiple thereof. The way to check to see if any three side lengths make a right triangle is to use the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem. If the longest side is c, calculate the value of c2 and see if it is less than, greater than or equal to a2 + b2, the sum of the squares of the other two sides. If the quantities are equal, the triangle would be a right triangle. If c2 is less than a2 + b2 the triangle would be acute. If c2 is greater than a2 + b2 the triangle would be obtuse.


4 in high and 5 in wide what is the length?

Assuming a right angled triangle then the length would be 3. This is a pythagorean triangle with sides 3, 4, 5.


Would the following make a right angle 5 8 9?

No, the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides 5 and 8 would be sqrt(25+64) ~= 9.43.
