Elinor determined that a triangle with side lengths 6, 10, and 8 does not form a right triangle. 62 + 102 = 82 36 + 100 = 64 136 ≠ 64 is her answer correct? no, she should have added 82 and 102 and compared that to 62. no, she should have subtracted 102 from 82 and compared that to 62. no, she should have added 62 and 82 and compared that to 102. yes, she is correct.

option c is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

the rule regarding the sides of triangle is:

(length of longest side)^2 = square of sum of other two sides.

the sides given are:

6, 10 and 8.

applying the rule we will get:

(10)^2 = (6)^2 + (8)^2

100 = 36+64

100 = 100

so, her answer is incorrect.

no, she should have added 6^2 and 8^2 and compared that to 10^2.

so, option c is correct.
