Fgh is a right triangle. true or false?

Your mouse pointer is covering the number at the hypotenuse, but I assume that it is 10.

We can test to see if the triangle is a right angled triangle by using Pythagoras' Theorem. This is because the Pythagorean Theorem only works with right angled triangles.

The theorem is:

where:

a = length of one leg of the triangle

b = length of the other leg of the triangle

c = the length of the hypotenuse.

If triangle FGH is a right triangle then:

is just 51

is 49

and is 100

if we add up 51 and 49 we get 100. And of course, 100 = 100,

Since the theorem works, then the FGH is a right triangle
