Answer to Problem 18AYU
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The length of the side of a triangle are given. Determine which are right triangles. For those that are, identify the hypotenuse.
Calculation:
Let us assume that the length of the sides of a
According to Pythagorean Theorem,
In a right
Where a, b and c are sides of the right
Now, put
Therefore it is right
Hence its hypotenuse is 10
