Square the two smaller ones and see if that total equals the square of the larger one.

How do you get the other sides of a triangle when you only have one side?
You need the measures of two sides and for the triangle to be a right triangle to figure out the third side.
What is a triangle that has 2 congruent sides and an angle that measures 90 degrees?
That is called a "Right Triangle"
Does a right angle triangle have 90?
A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the three angles measures 90°. In other words, it is a triangle with two sides that are perpendicular to each other.
If An isosceles right triangle is a triangle with an angle measuring ninety degrees and no two sides congruent?
No. An isosceles right triangle has the measures of 90, 45, and 45. Isosceles means that two sides are congruent. Hope this helps :)
How do you determine if a triangle has a right angle by multiplying slopes?
Well, when the slopes of the perpendicular sides of the right triangle are mutiplied, the result should be -1.
Does a right angle triangle have 2 equal sides?
Not necessarily. A triangle with two equal sides is called an isoceles triangle. A right triangle has one angle that measures 90 degrees.

How do you know if a triangle is a right triangle using the pythagorean therom?
We know that a right triangle is a triangle having a right angle, where the side opposite the right angle is the hypotenuse, and the perpendicular sides are the legs of the right triangle. The Pythagorean theorem gives the relationship between the lengths of the sides of a right triangles. In the case where you know only the measure lengths of the sides of a triangle, you need to test these measures. If one of the sides of the triangle has a square measure equal to the sum of the square measures of two other sides, then this side is called the hypotenuse and opposite to this side is a 90 degree angle, which is a right angle. So, you can say that this triangle is a right triangle. Pythagorean triple are very helpful to determine a right triangle, such as: (3, 4, 5), (5,12,13), (8, 15, 17), (7, 24, 25), and (20, 21, 29).
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:

A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the three angles measures 90°. In other words, it is a triangle with two sides that are perpendicular to each other.
Which could be the measures of the sides of a right triangle?
65, 72, and 97
How can you determine whether or not the sides of a triangle form a right triangle using Pythagorean triples?
If the lengths of the sides of the triangle can be substituted for 'a', 'b', and 'c'in the equationa2 + b2 = c2and maintain the equality, then the lengths of the sides are a Pythagorean triple, and the triangle is a right one.
If An isosceles right triangle is a triangle with an angle measuring ninety degrees and no two sides congruent?
No. An isosceles right triangle has the measures of 90, 45, and 45. Isosceles means that two sides are congruent. Hope this helps :)

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 right triangle has a hypotenuse of 10 cm and one leg that measures 15 What is the length of the other leg?
The hypotenuse is always the longest of the three sides of a right triangle.
